Boston Red Sox second base/outfield prospect Kristian Campbell went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run during their loss to the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday evening. Campbell would go deep in the 11th inning. This was his fifth home run of his rookie season. However, entering this contest, the Georgia Tech product was riding an extended slump. Over his previous nine contests, Campbell went 3-for-34 at the plate with one RBI, 11 strikeouts, and no walks. However, prior to this skid, Campbell held an impressive .313/.420/.515 slash line with eight doubles, four home runs, two stolen bases, and a 30:19 K:BB. Fantasy managers should continue to view Campbell as a solid second baseman or outfielder in all formats. He will look to remain productive on Wednesday, facing Detroit ace Tarik Skubal.

Boston Red Sox second base prospect Kristian Campbell (ribs) is returning to the starting nine on Sunday afternoon when the Red Sox face the Minnesota Twins. Campbell has been held out of action for the last three games due to this minor injury. However, the infielder has progressed well and will not face an extended absence. The top prospect will cover the keystone and bat cleanup. Over his last nine contests before his injury, the Georgia Tech product has posted a .324/.425/.529 slash line with four doubles and one home run. Through his 29 games in the major leagues, Campbell has performed quite well, holding a .301/.407/.495 slash line with four home runs and two stolen bases. Fantasy managers should view Campbell as a strong option this afternoon, and he is worth a look in DFS facing Minnesota right-hander Chris Paddack.

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Kristian Campbell (ribs) remains out of the starting lineup on Saturday when they continue a series against the Minnesota Twins. The top prospect has been day-to-day with rib discomfort over his previous three contests. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Sunday's contest. If he is unable to make progress, the Red Sox could eventually shift him to the injured list. Through his first 29 games at the MLB level, the Georgia Tech product has been very productive, posting a .301/.407/.495 slash line with four home runs and two stolen bases. This afternoon, David Hamilton will get another start at the keystone. Hamilton is best to fade in DFS this afternoon, facing Minnesota right-hander Bailey Ober.

Boston Red Sox rookie second baseman Kristian Campbell (ribs) remains out of the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the visiting Minnesota Twins at Fenway Park. Campbell was scratched from Thursday's series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays as a precaution with sore ribs, and now he'll miss his second straight game. The good news is that the 22-year-old infielder's injury isn't considered serious, and he's being deemed day-to-day heading into the weekend. The former fourth-rounder in 2023 out of the Georgia Institute of Technology has settled in nicely as the team's starting second baseman in his first 103 big-league at-bats, batting .301 with four homers, 12 RBI, 18 runs and two stolen bases. David Hamilton will once again start at second and bat eighth on Friday against Twins right-hander Joe Ryan. He represents a low-upside DFS sleeper at the bottom of the lineup.

Boston Red Sox second base/outfield prospect Kristian Campbell (ribs) is viewed as day-to-day heading into their weekend series against the Minnesota Twins. The budding star was stretched from Thursday's lineup due to rib soreness. However, this injury does not appear serious, and the Georgia Tech product could return to the starting nine as early as Friday evening. Campbell was able to break camp with the MLB roster and has enjoyed an impressive start to his MLB career, holding a .301/.407/.495 slash line with four long balls and two stolen bases. Under the hood, Campbell has generated a strong .364 xwOBA while drawing walks at an elite 15.4 percent rate. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Friday's game. If he were to sit out, David Hamilton should see opportunities at the keystone.

Boston Red Sox rookie second baseman Kristian Campbell (rib) has been scratched from Thursday's starting lineup against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays with right-rib discomfort, according to MassLive's Christopher Smith. David Hamilton will take over at the keystone and will hit eighth against Blue Jays right-hander Jose Berrios. For now, fantasy managers should consider Campbell day-to-day and check back to see if he's available to play in Friday's series opener against the Minnesota Twins at Fenway Park. The 22-year-old former fourth-rounder has held his own in his first MLB season to this point, hitting .301 (31-for-103) with four home runs, 12 RBI, 18 runs and two stolen bases. Hamilton offers limited DFS upside and has gone just 2-for-30 this year with a homer, two RBI and two steals. He has hit .143 in just seven career at-bats against Berrios.

Boston Red Sox second baseman Kristian Campbell went 2-for-2 with a double in Sunday's 13-3 victory over the Cleveland Guardians. The rookie was electric in the drubbing of the Guardians, adding a single, two RBI, four runs scored, and a steal. He's up to a .305 average now, with a .412 OBP and an .886 OPS through his first 27 major-league games. It's an excellent start to his career, as the 22-year-old's advanced eye at the plate has carried over into his first stint in the bigs. Campbell has reached base in eight of his past ten appearances, collecting four multi-hit performances over that span. Additionally, he's been impacting the ball better recently, notching three hard-hit balls over the weekend.

Boston Red Sox rookie second baseman Kristian Campbell is getting a breather on Wednesday against the visiting Seattle Mariners at Fenway Park. Romy Gonzalez will draw the start at the keystone and will hit seventh against Mariners right-hander Emerson Hancock. It's a routine day of rest for Campbell, who has looked like a seasoned veteran as Boston's starting second baseman in his first 23 games, as he's gone 24-for-80 (.300) with three home runs, five doubles, eight RBI, one stolen base, 12 runs scored, 15 walks and 23 strikeouts in 96 plate appearances. The 22-year-old should be back in action for Thursday's series finale against Seattle. Gonzalez has only played in eight games so far in 2025 and is still looking for his first home run, but he's currently hitting .346 (9-for-26) with four doubles, three RBI and six runs scored in his limited playing time. He has never faced Hancock in his career.

Boston Red Sox rookie second baseman Kristian Campbell is taking the day off for Wednesday's contest against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field. He will be replaced at second base by David Hamilton, who will hit eighth against struggling Rays right-hander Zack Littell. Campbell will get a breather after starting each of the team's last eight games. One of the team's top prospects coming into the year, the 22-year-old earned an Opening Day roster spot as the starting second baseman and has not disappointed in his first 18 games, hitting .302/.392/.508 with a .900 OPS, three homers, four RBI, six RBI, a steal, 11 runs scored, 10 walks and 18 strikeouts. He should be back in there after an off day on Thursday in Friday's series opener against the Chicago White Sox. Hamilton offers very little offensive upside at the bottom of the batting order and has just one hit in 21 at-bats this year.

Boston Red Sox infield prospect Kristian Campbell went 2-for-3 with a home run during their loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday evening. Campbell would score Boston's lone run in this contest on a solo shot in the third frame. Campbell would go deep against Tampa Bay right-hander Shane Baz. Campbell has enjoyed an impressive start to his MLB career. He has reached base safely in each of his first 17 contests. Across this stint, the Georgia Tech product has posted a stellar .328/.420/.552 slash line with four doubles, three long balls, and one stolen base. He has shown a strong eye at the plate, holding a 10:16 BB:K. Boston has typically deployed Campbell at the keystone but has also given him five starts in the outfield. He will look to stay hot at the plate on Tuesday, facing Ryan Pepiot.

Boston Red Sox second base prospect Kristian Campbell will take his first day off of the season in Monday's series opener against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays at Fenway Park. David Hamilton will get the start at the keystone and will hit eighth for the BoSox against Blue Jays right-hander Jose Berrios. Campbell, the team's former fourth-round pick in 2023 out of the Georgia Institute of Technology, is off to a great start in his first major-league season. The 22-year-old is slashing .364/.476/.667 with a 1.143 OPS, two home run, four doubles, five RBI, one stolen base, 10 runs scored, eight walks and eight strikeouts in his first 10 games. Campbell has quickly become a must-roster player in all fantasy leagues, and his eight-year, $60 million deal could end up being a huge steal for Boston. Hamilton is hitting .200 in just five career at-bats versus Berrios.

Boston Red Sox second baseman Kristian Campbell went 2-for-4 with a homer and two RBI in an 8-4 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday. Campbell launched a two-run homer off Baltimore starter Charlie Morton in the second inning to give the Red Sox a 4-1 lead in the early going. The 22-year-old second baseman is off to a hot start in 2025, picking up 10 hits in 24 at-bats, including two homers and four doubles. Campbell should be a regular consideration in fantasy lineups while he's swinging a hot bat.

The Boston Red Sox have signed infield/outfield prospect Kristian Campbell to an eight-year, $60 million extension that includes two club options. Campbell is one of the top prospects in Boston and the entire sport and will now serve as a franchise player for the foreseeable future. Despite his slow start in spring training, the Georgia Tech product was able to make the Opening Day roster. Through his first five games in the majors, Campbell has tallied at least one hit in all but one and launched his first career long ball on March 29. During this stretch, he has scored four runs and added two doubles. Last season, the 22-year-old progressed through the Boston system at an impressive pace, starting the season at High-A and ending the campaign with Triple-A. Across 115 total games, Campbell posted a .330/.439/.558 slash line with 32 doubles and 20 home runs. Even though he has come up through the minor leagues as a second baseman, he has also begun to see time in the outfield. Fantasy managers should continue to view Campbell as a strong option in all formats, as he should have an everyday role in the starting nine throughout the season.

The Boston Red Sox and top infield prospect Kristian Campbell are in deep talks about a contract extension. No contract specifics were reported, but look for the Red Sox to try to secure an extension with their top prospect soon. He earned a spot on Boston's Opening Day roster and is off to a hot start in 2025. The 22-year-old is hitting .500 (5-for-10) with a home run over two games. Campbell smashed his first major-league home run off Jacob Webb in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Texas Rangers. His homer traveled 431 feet with an exit velocity of 112.2 mph. Campbell has a ton of upside and should be added in all league formats. He's only rostered in 39% of Yahoo Fantasy leagues, especially while swinging a hot bat. Campbell will look to continue his strong start in Sunday's series finale against the Rangers.

Boston Red Sox second base prospect Kristian Campbell is starting at the keystone and is batting sixth in his major-league debut on Opening Day on Thursday against the Texas Rangers and right-hander Nathan Eovaldi at Globe Life Field. Campbell did just enough in spring training to edge out David Hamilton for the starting duties at the keystone in Boston to begin the 2025 regular season. Last year's minor-league breakout player hit just .167 (8-for-48) with two doubles, a homer, two RBI, eight runs and 18 strikeouts in 59 plate appearances in 20 Grapefruit League games this spring, but he showed enough on defense to convince manager Alex Cora to carry him on the big-league roster to begin the year. It may take the 22-year-old a while for his power to show at the major-league level, but otherwise he should be a middle infielder with upside for those in deep-mixed fantasy leagues.

Boston Red Sox second baseman Kristian Campbell has officially made the team's Opening Day roster, according to Chris Cotillo. He will likely begin the season playing every day at second base, with Alex Bregman at third and Rafael Devers shifting to DH. He didn't have the most promising spring, batting just .174 and striking out at a 30.4% clip. However, he did connect with his first home run on Saturday and is coming off of a dominant 2024 season in the minors where he slashed .330/.439/.558 with 20 home runs and 24 stolen bases. He is one of the best prospects in baseball and plays the weakest position in fantasy, making him a must-add in any league where he isn't already rostered.

Boston Red Sox prospect Kristian Campbell is starting at second base and is batting leadoff for Saturday's Grapefruit League game. It's the second straight day that Campbell is starting at the keystone, suggesting that he may be the favorite to open the 2025 regular season as the starter at second over David Hamilton. Manager Alex Cora said that he has a "pretty good idea of what we're going to do" at the position, but the club has yet to make their plans official to the media. Hamilton is expected to make the Opening Day roster, but it will likely be as utility infielder. The 22-year-old Campbell broke out in the minors in 2024 with a .329/.437/.551 slash line with 20 home runs and 24 steals in 115 games over three different levels. He should definitely be rostered in dynasty/keeper leagues, but fantasy managers in deep-mixed and AL-only leagues may want to temper expectations in his rookie season, especially in the power department.

Despite a report on Monday suggesting that Boston Red Sox infielder David Hamilton might be the front-runner to win the starting job at second base, MassLive's Chris Cotillo and Sean McAdam write that prospect Kristian Campbell remains squarely in the mix to win the job and appears to be the favorite (in the mind of team decision-makers) despite struggling at the plate so far in spring training. In addition to Hamilton and Campbell, Vaughn Grissom is also competing at the keystone. Campbell, who is ranked as the No. 4 overall prospect in MLB by Baseball America, helped his case by making several diving grabs on defense in Monday's Grapefruit League win over the Orioles while also going 1-for-3 with a double and a walk. While Campbell has the much higher fantasy ceiling than Hamilton, he could probably benefit from more minor-league seasoning after going 6-for-36 (.167) at the plate with a .286 OBP in 15 spring games.

Boston Red Sox infielder Kristian Campbell is reportedly still competing for the starting second base job, according to manager Alex Cora. The 22-year-old seemed like the favorite to secure the job at the beginning of camp, but the Red Sox are going to make him earn it. If he gets the starting gig, David Hamilton would likely slide into a utility role and Vaughn Grissom would probably end up in Triple-A. Campbell has the speed and potential with the bat to be an immediate impact player which could be as early as Opening Day.
