Red Sox analyst: Top pitching prospect Payton Tolle could have ‘impactful’ role down the stretch

Another possible role for a touted Red Sox prospect: With top Red Sox prospects like Kristian Campbell, Marcelo Mayer, Roman Anthony, and Jhostynxon Garcia getting their Major League debuts in 2025, it’s possible that yet another highly-regarded youngster could play a role down the stretch in September.

Payton Tolle, selected in the second round of the 2024 MLB Draft, has been promoted multiple times this season. Starting his year at High-A Greenville, the 22-year-old left-hander has made his way up to Triple-A Worcester.

In his last two starts for the WooSox, Tolle has allowed just one run in 10 innings, notching 14 strikeouts.
