Curtis Mead Stats

Tampa Bay Rays infield prospect Curtis Mead (elbow, forearm) has been shut down for the rest of the season. Mead elected to receive an injection to help with his healing process, but it didn't make sense for him to return for the final 10 games in 2022. The 21-year-old is the club's top hitting prospect and is their No. 2 overall prospect, per MLB Pipeline. He missed a month in the middle of the season and finished with a strong .298/.390/.532 slash line with a .922 OPS, 13 home runs, 50 RBI, 43 runs scored and seven stolen bases in 331 plate appearances over 76 combined games for Double-A Montgomery and Triple-A Durham this year. With better health in 2023, there's a good chance that Mead will make his big-league debut for the Rays.

Tampa Bay Rays infield prospect Curtis Mead was promoted from Double-A to Triple-A on Tuesday. He went on to make his first appearance at Triple-A this year on Tuesday and he went 1-for-4 with a single. The 21-year-old Australian is ranked as the team's No. 4 overall prospect by MLB Pipeline. He slashed .305/.394/.548 with 10 home runs, 36 RBI and 35 runs over 56 games at Double-A this year prior to his promotion. He briefly played at Triple-A last year, suiting up in four games last September and hitting a home run and two doubles. There's a chance he could make his MLB debut this year if he stays hot at Triple-A and the team needs him somewhere in the infield. However, it may be more likely that we see him get his first chance in the majors next year.
