Those are two quick promotions very few had on their bingo card. Great to see and speaks to the growing depth in the system.
& now as of June 4th, all 4 have officially happened with Portes being promoted to Salem.

Not surprised at all to see Campbell. Kid has been a menace since we drafted him. Elite contact skills and drives the ball, albeit mostly to gaps. Needs to be challenged against more legit offspeed stuff.
Santana is 18 & was seeing limited action in the DSL, but in his 20 PAs he had a 160 wRC+.
Within weeks, perhaps days. Exciting speculation!
It does not make sense to promote Campbell in the near future. Anthony should continue playing center field, at least until Ceddanne Rafaela more consistently demonstrates discipline at the dish. Moreso, Nick Yorke should continue to play second base as Boston will have to decide whether to add him to the 40-man roster this December. Keeping Campbell in Portland allows him to continue to play both positions with negligible impact upon other prospects. Even a potential promotion to Portland for Allan Castro would have minimal impact, as Castro could shift to right field when Campbell plays center.
Yeah, I had that thought separately when he came back from missing a few games so obviously posted it in a completely different place lol
His defense has been really rough, but he's kept the run of good hitting going, so it wouldn't be the worst idea.
Never really understood why they didn't give him any playing time in Greenville.
Feeney hasn't pitched since June 22nd.
Montero had been on the Dev list since being promoted on July 1st.
Exact same as Montero.
Pretty sure this is Future Stars game related. Mayer had the same transaction last year for it.
Denlinger last pitched 6/28.
Same as Roman.
I mentioned this as a possibility the other day in conjunction with a potential Roman promotion. Makes sense to get Rosier PAs over guys like Decker.
Poor Slaten.
My general understanding was to expect a round of pitcher promotions now & a round of hitter promotions once the FCL season ends.

Musett replaces GRod in Salem. I'm excited to see that.
Getting the 2 new draftee OFs in Greenville.
& Fraymi back to Salem.
& Cole Tolbert is the 1st pitcher draftee assigned to an actual affiliate who's playing games.
Turns out those weren't real transactions.
