Red Sox prospect Kristian Campbell misses potential call-up with foot injury
Summary

The Boston Red Sox will not call up prospect Kristian Campbell to the major league roster following an injury. Campbell was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Worcester on Thursday due to a left foot contusion. The move comes after reports suggested the organization considered promoting him to address current roster attrition in the outfield. Although the team aimed to evaluate his performance in late-season, low-pressure environments, the injury now prevents his promotion. Campbell had recently entered the conversation for a promotion following a hot streak at the plate. The organization continues to manage multiple injuries on its current major league roster while monitoring the development of its minor league talent.
