Things are not doing well at all for the Boston Red Sox at the moment, they who are three games below the bar, 500 and occupy the fourth row in the eastern section of the American League behind the New York Yankees, the Rays of Tampa Bay and the Blue Jays de Toronto.
Not to mention the fact that the low reds underwent another heartbreak lifting last night (Tuesday). Indeed, Boston held a 1-0-ninth round advance against the Brewers of Milwaukee, but Aroldis Chapman made a classic sabotage, before the Voltiger Christian Yelich succeeded in a great slam in tenth round to close the debate.
Admittedly, the Boston is only a match and a half of the last place giving the right to a place in the playoffs. But a spark is necessary for this formation extinct for some time.
And this is where the name of the young novel Anthony surfaces.
Obviously, there's no guarantees when you call up a prospect – not to mention the immense pressure on a top prospect to "save" a struggling team – but with this Red Sox offense, there's zero excuse not to give Roman Anthony his shot. https://t.co/vAmBBuJWaF

We do not know when the team will ultimately make the decision to recall Anthony in the adults, but despite the fact that there is no guarantee when a prospect arrives in the MLB, there is no excuse not to give him a chance.
A few more defeats, and the pressure will be enormous on the representatives of the Massachusetts and on the young player himself.
Anthony has nothing to prove in minors. And although the SOXs have Jarren Duran, Wilyer Abreu and Ceddanne Rafaela on the outside field and Rafael Devers as a hobper, if they show a little creativity with Rafaela by sending it to the inner field, it could open the door.
Recall that if Devers thought of something other than his little person and that he was playing in the first cushion, things would be very different.
