Could Red Sox Rookie Roman Anthony Be Baseball’s Next Superstar? Here’s What to Expect.
Why is he a big the biggest deal?
Anthony is MLB’s top prospect because his offensive ceiling is stratospheric.
Drafted 79th overall in 2022 but given a signing bonus commensurate with a late-first-round slot, Anthony was well-known as a high schooler, but he wasn’t a “can’t-miss” prospect. Talent evaluators worried that the young Floridian might be something of a tweener — an outfielder who doesn’t hit enough to start in a corner but doesn’t have an elite glove in center field. Think Hunter Renfroe, Will Benson, late-career Jason Heyward or the current scuffling version of Brandon Marsh.
