Red Sox Shake Up Fantasy Baseball: Could Roman Anthony Be the Game-Changer You’ve Been Waiting For?

While Anthony is expected to be a future star by everyone who analyzes the game, you never know how young players will respond to their first MLB action (Campbell has cooled after a quick start — though he had four hits and a homer over the weekend — while Mayer has a modest .643 OPS). But fantasy managers obviously can’t ignore the plausible upside here. Despite being less than a month from his 21st birthday, it’s possible Anthony makes a splash in his first lap around The Show.
