Campbell went 1-for-3 in the Opening Day win over the Rangers on Thursday before going 2-for-4 at the plate in Friday’s loss.
Campbell entered the season as the Red Sox’s second-best prospect and the No. 7 ranked prospect in all of baseball, per MLB.com.
He’s a tremendous hitter and a quality defender. Don’t be surprised if Campbell plays a meaningful role in Boston’s success this season.
