Red Sox face roster decisions with prospects and injury updates
Summary

The Red Sox need to make key roster decisions as they approach minor league free agency. Outfield prospect Allan Castro showcased his power in September at Triple-A Worcester, finishing with a.300 batting average and six home runs in seven games. With the Rule 5 Draft looming and limited roster flexibility, including only three pending free agents, the team must consider potentially adding Castro to their 40-man roster. Additionally, reliever Zack Kelly sustained a stress fracture, complicating the team's pitching depth.
