Wonders in Worcester could provided reinforcements for the Red Sox

While the bats in Boston have been quiet, the wonders in Worcester have been banging the ball all around. We know about the name Triston Casas. This year in AAA, Casas has been a slugging machine. His batting average is a bit low sitting at a .262, but he already has four home runs. I swear when he launches a home run it goes at least 500 feet.

The other guys down in Worcester that I hope eventually get a shot in the Majors this year are Ryan Fitzgerald and Franchy Cordero.

Cordero was brought to Boston in the trade that sent Andrew Benintendi to Kansas City. He struggled his first year in Boston and has not seen the Majors since. Right now he has produced in Worcester. He has a batting average just north of .300, has three homers, leads the WooSox in RBIs, is third in runs, and is first in hits. He is producing, which is something the Red Sox are in much need of. I would love to see him get his second shot in Boston!

Fitzgerald is another guy that I would want to see in Boston. I doubt that we see him this year but he is electric. He had one heck of a Spring Training and that success has followed him to Worcester. He deserves a shot up in Boston and I can not wait for that to happen.

Chaim Bloom has done a fantastic job leading this organization and has given Red Sox Nation many reasons to be excited about what is going on now and for many seasons to come!
