Predicting Red Sox top prospect Marcelo Mayer's timeline to the majors

The Boston Red Sox made some moves this offseason, but not all of them went over well with the fans. Some were upset that the Red Sox didn't bring in any big free agents. Most were also upset they didn’t bring back homegrown superstar Xander Bogaerts. Boston did acquire some new talent, including top prospect Marcelo Mayer.

The Boston Red Sox have made some moves this offseason. Some fans were upset that they didn't bring back homegrown superstar Xander Bogaerts. The team did acquire some new talent, including Kenley Jansen, Chris Martin, Joely Rodriguez, Masataka Yoshida and Justin Turner. Top prospect Marcelo Mayer was 19 when he played his first full season in the minors in 2022. He slashed .280/.399/.489 with 30 doubles, two triples, and 13 home runs.

Marcelo Mayer is a highly rated prospect. He spent last year in High-A and is expected to play in Greenville in 2023. If he impresses, he could be promoted to Double- or Triple-AA. Then he would play the 2024 season in Triple A and make his MLB debut. The Red Sox signed a two-year deal with Turner to bridge the gap between him and Mayer.

Don't call Marcelo Mayer the Red Sox' savior, but he may have to be

Bobby Witt Jr. began last year at third base, but the Royals sound pretty committed to him at shortstop next year despite some poor defensive metrics last year. That leaves a pretty big opening next to him at…
