Acquired in a trade that sent promising pitcher Connelly Early to Washington, Mead’s power bat (17 homers, strong wRC+) was seen as vital for the future, and he’s under team control through 2030. While the infield has held strong thanks to Andruw Monasterio and Nick Sogard, the team’s playoff push hinges on getting Mead healthy in time for October. Tonight, they face the Angels at Fenway, with Jake Bennett on the mound, as they try to fine-tune and stay competitive.
