Campbell snubbed—front office playing scared?

Unreal! The Sox brass just iced Kristian Campbell when September call-ups hit, and for what? The kid’s been raking in Worcester, flashing a .378 OBP and real versatility. Yet we’re rolling with the same stale lineup instead of injecting some fresh fire. If you’re not giving a hot bat a shot now, when will you? Front office playing it way too safe. Would you risk leaving Campbell off the playoff roster if things get tight? #Sports #Baseball #RedSox

Campbell is not ready for a prime time slot. He’s just not ready. Leave him down there. Let him keep getting to play every day maybe next year if he shows improvement.

He should stay there and maintain his focus!!! He already proved he’s not ready after he signed the big contract and crashed and burned trying to play up to those expectations!

I like bringing him up 3AAA shuts down earlier. They invested the money already not much reason not too.

Stale lineup? What a Maroon. Seems to be someone new in the field daily. And they’re delivering. Look at the Box Score box… The facts, only the facts Mam!

Whoever wrote this? Clearly doesn't pay attention to the Sox. Stale is the opposite of what they have been. Besides he had many opportunities to make an impact. If you call him up now you could ruin him & his confidence. I agree with the front office.

The devers trade was a whopping bust without bringing this kid up and the trade deadline was the worse ever for a Sox team ever!!!!!!! Unless Cora learns from his mistakes cuz Dustin is good first two times through the order then he gets beat up like a red headed step child! Pun intended…… but seriously only an analogy from growing up days I don’t believe in anger with any child…. Bust tho regardless
