PORTLAND, Maine — Kristian Campbell has spent all of two weeks with the Portland Sea Dogs.
But he sure hasn’t played like the new call-up on the block.
“I mean, you can’t ask for a better start than he’s given us,” Portland manager Chad Epperson said of the 21-year-old prospect.
While it’s to be expected for there to be growing pains for any baseball player making the jump up to the next level of competition, Campbell’s stat line says otherwise.
Now entrenched in a Sea Dogs lineup already inundated with potential franchise fixtures in Boston like Marcelo Mayer, Roman Anthony, and Kyle Teel, it’s been Campbell whose stock has arguably soared the highest this summer within Boston’s prospect pipeline.
