Red Sox Prospect Watch: Austin Rei working his way back
Boston Red Sox catching prospect Austin Rei is working his way back to higher minor league levels as he attempts to return from injury.
I’ve long said that the Boston Red Sox have a lot of solid catchers in the minors that can be big parts of their futures. Someone I talked about a lot last season was Austin Rei. However, some people might have noticed he hasn’t been mentioned at all this year.
There’s a simple reason for that – he was hurt. Rei is making his way back though, playing for the GCL Red Sox. There, he’s 4-for-14 (.286) with one double and four RBI. I’m excited to get to talk about him regularly soon.
