One of the brightest emerging stars in the Red Sox constellation was sidelined for the rest of the year by an torn ACL.
Sam Travis, a rapidly advancing first base prospect, was injured in a run-down play in yesterday's PawSox game. Travis was doing well at AAA and was targeted as a possible first base option in 2017 after the retirement of
David Ortiz and the shift of
Hanley Ramirez to DH. This is a tough blow for the 22-year old as well as the organization overall.
