NextImg:Marcelo Mayer, Roman Anthony to take part in Red Sox Rookie Development Program

The Red Sox announced Wednesday that 11 players, including top prospects Marcelo Mayer and Roman Anthony, will take part in this offseason’s Rookie Development Program.

The five-day program, which will take place at Fenway Park starting Jan. 15, aims to help young players adjust to life in the big leagues on and off the field. In addition to Mayer and Anthony, the participants will include catchers Kyle Teel and Nathan Hickey, infielders Chase Meidroth and Nick Yorke, and pitchers Isaiah Campbell, Richard Fitts, Wikelman Gonzalez, Luis Perales and Justin Slaten.

All of this year’s group could conceivably play a role in the majors for the Red Sox this season. Mayer and Anthony are both Top 20 prospects according to Baseball America, and along with first-round catcher Kyle Teel project as possible second-half call-ups.

Slaten was a Rule 5 pick who must make the team or be offered back to the Texas Rangers, Campbell and Fitts were each acquired in trades this offseason, and Gonzalez and Perales were Boston’s top two incumbent pitching prospects who were added to the 40-man roster to protect them from the Rule 5 Draft.
