Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Mickey Gasper, 30-year-old catcher/first baseman, was recalled by the Boston Red Sox from Triple-A Worcester on May 7, 2026, to fill the roster spot left by Roman Anthony's wrist injury. Gasper has shown strong performance at Triple-A with a .296 batting average, 6 home runs, 27 RBIs, and .948 OPS in 28 games. Upon his MLB return, he went 3-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI in his first start, followed by 1-for-4 in his second start. He is a favorite of interim manager Chad Tracy, who previously managed him at Worcester and called him "the best hitter from the left side he's ever managed." Gasper expressed confidence and comfort returning to the Red Sox organization after a stint with the Minnesota Twins in 2025, crediting the team's development system and coaching consistency.
