The Boston Red Sox have been in the headlines recently after trading star slugger Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants in a stunning move. Unfortunately for Red Sox fans, they got even more bad news on Wednesday.
Red Sox pitching prospect Yordanny Monegro will undergo Tommy John surgery after tearing the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his throwing elbow, Double-A Portland manager Chad Epperson told Beyond the Monster’s Josh Ball on Wednesday.

Red Sox prospects (and High-A Greenville teammates) Mikey Romero and Yordanny Monegro have been named the South Atlantic League Player and Pitcher of the Week for the week of July 29-August 4, Minor League Baseball announced on Monday.
Yordanny Monegro and Co. no-hit the Blue Rocks, Enmanuel Valdez goes 5-for-5, and two walk-off wins on the farm. After a rainout on Wednesday, the Woo Sox and Bisons (TOR) played two seven-inning affairs on Thursday, combining for 30 runs in 14 innings.
