ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Tampa Bay Rays infielder Wander Franco, considered the best prospect in the minors, is set to make his major league debut.
The Rays say they plan to promote the 20-year-old Franco from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday. Tampa Bay is off Monday and hosts the Red Sox on Tuesday night.
Franco is a .332 hitter with 145 RBIs in three minor league seasons.
Franco went 5 for 17 with a long home run in seven spring training games for Tampa Bay this year.
