Boston Red Sox top prospect Payton Tolle jumps on “Cassell’s Corner” podcast to talk about his rise through the Red Sox farm system last year, which concluded with his first call up to the big leagues, and his start with Triple-A Worcester this season.

A 6-foot-6 left-handed pitcher with a penchant for a good quote, Tolle also touches on the passing of his mom before he was drafted by the Red Sox in 2024, how he started growing his infamous mustache and why he keeps quoting bananas and monkeys when he talks to the press.

Oh, and Tolle, who recently got engaged, discusses how he popped the big question to his fiancée.
