Chavis was promoted to High-A Salem on Tuesday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports. He served as Salem's designated hitter Tuesday, going 1-for-4 with a run scored.
Chavis, who was selected in the first round (26th overall) of the 2014 draft, repeated at Low-A Greenville in 2016 after an unspectacular 2015 with the Drive. He started this season looking like he was on a fast track to Salem, but a thumb injury blocked his momentum. Since returning from the injury, Chavis has been unable to replicate his torrid April.
