The Red Sox sent Vaughn Grissom to Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday, per team updates, trailing Kristian Campbell and David Hamilton in the second base race.

Fantasy Impact

Grissom’s .176 average and .535 OPS in 13 spring games drop him behind Campbell and Hamilton for the Red Sox’s second base job, landing him in Worcester Wednesday. The 24-year-old’s bid fades. Fantasy managers in deep dynasty leagues should stash him, expecting his bat to rebound for a midseason call-up if Boston needs infield help in 2025.

Vaughn Grissom is reportedly considered the favorite to start at second base on Opening Day entering spring training.

Grissom is seemingly competing with Kristian Campbell for the job throughout the next month. He hit .190 across 105 at-bats with the Red Sox last season.

Despite the team's defeat, Grissom's performance was a bright spot, marking a significant improvement over his season, posting a batting average of .192. This game could be a turning point for Grissom, who has struggled to find consistency at the plate throughout the season. His ability to hit safely three times in this game might hint at an upward trend as he seeks to establish himself more firmly in the lineup. However, fantasy managers should remain cautious.
