Former Boston Red Sox top prospect Michael Chavis has become a free agent, according to a report published Thursday. The 2021 photo shows Chavis, wearing number 23, reacting after striking out in the ninth inning against the Oakland Athletics at Fenway Park on May 12, 2021.

The news was reported by Michael DeRosa for Heavy on November 5, 2026. Chavis, once considered one of Boston's premier minor league talents, debuted with the Red Sox in 2019 and played parts of three seasons with the club before being traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2022.
