Red Sox Prospect Watch: Tyler Esplin and Brandon Howlett are on fire

The Boston Red Sox once again have a number of younger players on the Major League roster. Michael Chavis is the leader of that group. Entering the year as Boston’s top prospect, he hasn’t disappointed.

Sure, he strikes out at a high clip. He’s also looked solid enough on defense at multiple positions and is hitting .255 with 16 home runs and 52 RBI. As he gets more comfortable and figures out Major League hitting some more, things will only get better.

Joining him for a while now has been Josh Taylor.
