Mayer (wrist) served as Single-A Salem's designated hitter in Tuesday's 1-0 win over Delmarva and went 1-for-4 with his fourth stolen base of the season.

EDGE Analysis

Mayer was sidelined for about two and a half weeks at Salem due to a sore right wrist before he was cleared to return to action Monday. Though he was eased back into the mix as a DH on Monday, it shouldn't be long before he's cleared to resume playing shortstop.

Mayer (wrist) is expected to return to game action sometime this week, Chris Hatfield of Sox Prospects reports.

EDGE Analysis

He has been sidelined with a sore wrist since April 23. Mayer hit .333/.397/.491 with one home run, three steals, a 9.5 BB% and a 27.0 K% in 63 plate appearances before suffering the injury.

Mayer has missed a week of action with a sore right wrist, Alex Speier of the Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Red Sox don't know exactly how Mayer picked up the injury, but they have taken the cautious route with one of their top prospects. He will miss a few more days, but the injury is not considered serious, so it should not be too long before he is back in the lineup.

Mayer picked up five plate appearances for the Red Sox this spring, going 0-for-4 with a walk and two strikeouts.

EDGE Analysis

He's 19 and has never played above rookie ball, so no one expected Mayer to put up numbers in spring training. Last year's No. 4 overall draft pick, he's expected to open 2022 in Low-A, and it'll be worth watching to see whether he can maintain last season's impressive walk rate (14 percent) while getting to his power more often in game action.

Mayer went 2-for-6 with a home run, four RBI and an additional run scored for the Florida Complex League Red Sox on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Mayer, Boston's first-round pick in the 2021 draft, launched his first professional home run, a three-run job. The shortstop is batting .214/.313/.357 with one home run, one double, five RBI and five runs over seven games in the FCL.

Mayer went 0-for-1 with three walks for the FCL Red Sox on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Mayer made his professional debut in the Florida Complex League with walks in his first three plate appearances before a groundout in his final appearance. Mayer is Boston's first-round pick (third overall) in the 2021 draft. The left-handed hitting shortstop belted 14 home runs and batted .392 (38-for-97) in 34 games for Eastlake High School in California.

Mayer agreed to a contract Thursday with the Red Sox that contains a $6.66 million signing bonus, Chad Jennings of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mayer, an 18-year-old shortstop from Chula Vista, Calif., was the No. 4 overall pick in this year's first-year player draft. After signing, Mayer took batting practice and participated in fielding drills prior to Thursday's game against the Yankees. The next stop is Fort Myers, where the 18-year-old will prepare for his professional debut in the rookie-level Florida Complex League.
