The Red Sox veteran starter said about Marcelo Mayer, "I think for him pressure’s probably a good thing in terms of the personality.”

It was a tough weekend overall, but the Boston Red Sox did have one clear bright spot. Boston called up No, 2 prospect Marcelo Mayer and he seems to be here to stay. Alex Bregman is going to be out for a bit and the Red Sox are going to need Mayer playing on an everyday basis.

Marcelo Mayer, Boston’s No. 2 overall prospect, was promoted to the Red Sox and needed to get a ride to Fenway Park to start against the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday.
