The recent promotion of Boston Red Sox prospects to Double-A Portland continued Thursday as shortstop Mauricio Dubon received a call-up from the Salem Red Sox.

Dubon, 21, will be in the Sea Dogs’ starting lineup Thursday evening for a 6 p.m. game against Harrisburg at Hadlock Field.

Dubon, a 26th-round draft pick by Boston in 2013, was selected a Carolina League All-Star this season after batting .306 with 24 stolen bases in 28 attempts with Class A Salem. He is a native of San Pedro Sula, Honduras.

Dubon joins second baseman Yoan Moncada and center fielder Andrew Benintendi as Boston prospects who have earned recent promotions from Salem to Portland.
