He very well could be the first of the ex-Red Sox prospect quartet to help the White Sox<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m fired up for this opportunity,\u201d Meidroth told CHSN\u2019s Chuck Garfien. \u201cThis city\u2019s been awesome. I can\u2019t wait to get going. \u2026 It wasn\u2019t much of a surprise. You kind of just be where your feet are and show up every day. Work hard in whatever jersey that is. That\u2019s what I\u2019m going to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meidroth is an on-base machine and a versatile defender that can play multiple positions around the infield. The Red Sox learned that in his development up to Triple-A Worcester. He posted an on-base percentage over .400 in each of his three seasons in the system and walked 105 times in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>He won\u2019t be the flashiest name as the rebuild goes along for the White Sox, but the former Red Sox product does two things extremely well to stabilize a position for Chicago.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div>\n<div>\n<h3>About the Author<\/h3>\n<div>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/2d31532e0613c1361bb5c723e6199210?s=96&amp;d=identicon&amp;r=g\" alt=\"Why Ex-Red Sox Prospect Could Lead Path To MLB With White Sox\" \/><\/figure>\n<div>\n<h3>Tim Crowley<\/h3>\n<p>Digital Content Producer<\/p>\n<p>The other &#8220;TC&#8221; at NESN.
