In 2021, the Boston Red Sox owned the No. 4 overall pick in the MLB draft, the highest pick the organization possessed since 1967. The club used that coveted selection on the player who was rated the top prospect in that draft class by MLB Pipeline — Chula Vista, California, prep shortstop Marcelo Mayer.
Marcelo Mayer was diagnosed with a sprained wrist. Beyond that, he doesn’t know much about the ailment — or how long he’ll be out.
The Boston Red Sox starting rotation has not been great this year. One of their All-Star pitchers has suffered an injury setback now.
