Franklin Arias rises as potential call-up for struggling Red Sox
Summary

Franklin Arias, currently dominating in Double-A, has emerged as a key prospect for the struggling Boston Red Sox, who hold a 25-34 record. Arias boasts a.327 batting average with 13 home runs in 42 games this season. The team may consider promoting him to pair with Marcelo Mayer in the middle infield, especially with Trevor Story sidelined. The prospect's impressive stats make him a strong candidate to help revitalize the offense, potentially skipping Triple-A altogether. The Red Sox are also contemplating calling up Anthony Seigler if this move does not materialize.
