    How Red Sox 1B power prospect (9 HR, 9 2B) has put himself in conversation

    Red Sox first base prospect Niko Kavadas posted a .377 on-base percentage last year in 117 games between Double-A Portland Triple-A Worcester. “I needed to increase my contact rate,” Kavadas said. Kavadas, an 11th round draft pick in 2021 out of Notre Dame, is batting .292 with a .454 on-base percentage, .632 slugging percentage, 1.086 OPS, nine homers, nine doubles, 26 RBIs, 29 runs, 28 walks and 40 strikeouts in 37 games at Worcester this season.

    Red Sox pitching prospect Luis Perales is showing good signs at Greenville

    Beneath that surface, the 21-year-old Perales has shown progress. Both his strikeout rate (34 percent, up from 26 in a year-ending stint in Greenville in 2023) and ground-ball rate (48 percent, up from 30) have jumped.

    Highly Touted Red Sox Prospect Suffers Injury After Solid Start To 2024

    Red Sox prospect Blaze Jordan suffered an injury Saturday that'll likely keep him sidelined for a little bit. Jordan landed on the seven-day injured list Sunday, one day after fracturing his left ring finger, and Red Sox farm director Brian Abraham told The Boston Globe the 21-year-old is expected to miss multiple weeks. Jordan, a third-round pick in 2020, was off to a strong start at Double-A Portland this season, slashing .283/.342/.414 with two home runs and 16 RBIs in 26 games (111 plate appearances). The numbers aren't eye-popping, especially for a prospect with such heralded raw power, but he owns the lowest strikeout rate (9.9%) of any hitter in Double-A, a promising development given prior questions about his hit tool.
