Impact Eaton was up with the big club for just one day and went unused off the bench in Sunday's 3-1 win over Atlanta.

Gets call to big leagues The Red Sox selected Eaton's contract from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

Impact Eaton will return to the big leagues for the first time since 2023, when he appeared in 28 games with the Royals. The 28-year-old had been handling an everyday role at Worcester and slashed .277/.364/.446 with five home runs and four stolen bases over 225 plate appearances, but he's unlikely to be anything more than a short-side platoon player while he's up with Boston. Eaton will provide the Red Sox with some speed and versatility off the bench, as he's made starts at all three outfield spots as well as three infield positions (second base, third base and shortstop) at Triple-A this season.

Impact Eaton ran for MJ Melendez in the 10th inning and stole third base, but he was left there in the one-run loss. Eaton has appeared in three games since his June 9 recall from Triple-A Omaha, but he's yet to log an at-bat. The outfielder will likely continue to serve as a defensive replacement and speed option off the bench, as he's hitting just .058 with three steals and a 2:21 BB:K through 55 plate appearances.

Impact Eaton will stick in the lineup for the fourth time in five games, despite having gone just 1-for-20 since receiving a call-up from Triple-A Omaha on May 5. Despite his struggles, Eaton appears to have emerged as the Royals' preferred option in center field over Jackie Bradley, though Kansas City will have room in the outfield for both players Wednesday while Edward Olivares gets the day off.

MAY 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
