Red Sox Prospect Update: Recapping a successful season for Boston’s top prospects

We've arrived at the final Boston Red Sox Prospect Update of the 2024 season. The Triple-A Worcester Red Sox played their final series this week, which wrapped up Boston's minor league seasons.

Luckily, the WooSox were playing the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs at their park in PA., meaning I got to go to the games.

Roman Anthony went 8-for-18 with three doubles and nine walks. The left-handed hitting outfielder crushed Triple-A. In 35 games, he slashed .344/.463/.519 and walked as many times (31) as he struck out (31). He slashed .291/.396/.498 with 32 doubles, four triples, and 18 home runs total on the year between Double-A and Triple-A. Anthony racked up 65 RBI, 93 runs, and 21 stolen bases. It feels like a lock that he'll make his MLB debut in 2025.

Kyle Teel figured Triple-A out in September. The left-handed hitting catcher went 6-for-16 with a double, two walks, and three RBI this week. He slashed .288/.386/.433 with 23 doubles and 13 home runs between Double-A and Triple-A. Teel posted 78 RBI, 88 runs scored, and 12 steals. He'll likely enter Spring Training 2025 with a chance to make the Opening Day roster.

Kristian Campbell played his last game on September 11, when he suffered an injury out of the box, running to first. However, he said he's fine when he spoke to reporters on his lat ailment. The right-handed hitting second baseman finished the year with a .330/.439/.558 slash line between High-A, Double-A, and Triple-A. He hit 32 doubles, three triples, and 20 home runs. Campbell had 77 RBI, 94 runs scored, and 24 steals. He's one of the very best prospects in all of baseball.

Alex Binelas went 3-for-12 with a walk, a steal, three RBI, a run scored, and a home run in his first week in Triple-A. The left-handed hitting corner infielder had a sneaky great year in Double-A. Following a rough first two months, Binelas came back with a vengeance despite sporadic playing time. He slashed .252/.353/.413 with 13 doubles, five triples, and nine home runs between Double-A and Triple-A. He posted 60 RBI, 46 runs scored, and 14 steals.

Phillip Sikes went 1-for-10 with a walk, an RBI, and a steal in his first week in Triple-A. The right-handed hitting outfielder is known for his defense and speed but had a solid year with the bat, which included a career-high 13 home runs. Sikes slashed .235/.325/.401 with 23 doubles, one triple, and those 13 homers between Double-A and Triple-A. He had 49 RBI (also a new career-high), 64 runs scored, and 25 steals.

Tyler McDonough didn't have the best week, going 2-for-22 with one walk. However, he hit his first career Triple-A home run in the final game of the season. The switch-hitting utility had a .241 average with 23 doubles, three triples, and six home runs between Double-A and Triple-A. He had a career-high 53 RBI, scored 55 runs, and stole 18 bases.

Hunter Dobbins finished the year with a great start. The right-handed pitcher tossed five shutout innings, allowing just two hits and two walks while striking out six batters. Pidgeotto posted a 3.08 ERA, .237 BAA, and 1.26 WHIP between Double-A and Triple-A. He struck out 120 batters compared to 48 walks in 125 2/3 innings.

Brian Van Belle didn't give up a run on one hit over three innings. The righty struck out three batters and walked two. BVB finished with a 4.42 ERA, .289 BAA, and 1.48 WHIP in 93 2/3 innings. He went 8-2 with two holds and two saves. Van Belle posted an 8.05 ERA in nine starts (34 2/3 innings) but just a 2.29 ERA in 21 appearances (59 innings) out of the bullpen.
