That Mayer has fanned 20 times in 65 plate appearances isn’t what anyone wants to see, but he’s punishing the ball when he makes contact. The homer today was his fourth in 65 plate appearances, and his current 60% hard-hit rate is third in the majors among players with 50 plate appearances, leaving him behind only Shohei Ohtani and, of course, Luis Torrens.

As Passan notes, Campbell has struggled mightily since the start of May with a slash of .159/.243/.222 in that timeframe. The 22-year-old offers considerable offensive upside and Boston obviously isn’t giving up on a player they signed to a $60 million contract extension, but fantasy managers should be looking for upgrades if they haven’t already. A corresponding move should be announced shortly.

Harrison will be throwing a bullpen on Saturday, and DeLucia was open about what the team is hoping to work with him on. “He has a sinker he’s been working on in the background in San Francisco. He’s going to showcase that, and then we’re working on a cutter variation. Another pitch to take pressure off the fastball.” Harrison has an elite four-seamer, so adding secondary pitches to support that would be a huge development for him. He’s going to remain in Triple-A for a few weeks while Boston continues to work on these pitch mix changes.

Houck was lifted after issuing a leadoff walk in the second inning after throwing 32 pitches (18 strikes) in his rehab debut. The 28-year-old righty will need a couple additional outings to continue building up his stamina and pitch count before returning to Boston’s rotation. He’s been out since mid-May due to a forearm flexor strain.
