Kristian Campbell, the Boston Red Sox prospect ranked #7 in the Top 100 by MLB Pipeline, made his Major League debut on opening day. The 22-year old started at second base, and registered a hit and a walk in Boston's 5-2 win over the Texas Rangers.

Campbell was named Baseball America’s Minor League Player of the Year by hitting .330/.439/.558 across three levels of the minors.
