Red Sox announce players heading to the Arizona Fall League

We are one day away from September and four days away from the end of the minor-league season. Obviously, most of our focus right now is on the major-league squad. Part of that is because the farm system is weakened right now, but it’s mostly because the major-league team is pretty dang good. Playoff contention deserves our attention. After the MLB season ends, however, the minor-league system can take a bigger spotlight, and specifically a group of seven players. The Arizona Fall League is one of the more exciting parts of the year for minor-league aficionados. If you’re unfamiliar, this is when a group of seven or so prospects from each team go down and play for about a month.
