Marcelo Mayer has a sore wrist, not to be believed as serious
According to a source, Red Sox top prospect Marcelo Mayer has not been in the lineup for the Salem Red Sox since April 23 due to complications of a sore wrist.
In that game, Mayer went two-for-six with a home run, his first of the year, and two runs batted in.
The home run came in the bottom of the first when Salem was down 2-0. Salem would wind up losing the game to the Charleston RiverDogs, 10-6.
On the season, Mayer has one home run, 10 runs batted in, and is slashing .333/.397/.491 with an OPS of .888 in 57 at-bats through 13 games played.
There are no reports of when Mayer will return to the Salem lineup.
