2020 Boston Red Sox season

The 2020 Boston Red Sox season was the 120th season in the team's history, and their 109th season at Fenway Park. The team entered spring training with a new leader in baseball operations, Chaim Bloom, and a new field manager, Ron Roenicke.

On March 12, 2020, MLB announced that because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the start of the regular season would be delayed by at least two weeks in addition to the remainder of spring training being cancelled.[3] Four days later, it was announced that the start of the season would be pushed back indefinitely due to the recommendation made by the CDC to restrict events of more than 50 people for eight weeks.[4] On June 23, MLB announced that pre-season training would resume by July 1, in anticipation of a regular season of 60 games.[5]The season was held without fans at Fenway Park due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Red Sox began their regular season on July 24, in a home game against the Baltimore Orioles. On September 12, the team suffered its 31st loss, assuring them of finishing the season with a losing record, their first since 2015. On September 27, prior to the team's final regular season game, the Red Sox announced that Roenicke would not return as manager for the 2021 season.[6] The team ended the season with a record of 24 wins and 36 losses, finishing in last place in the American League East division, 16 games behind the Tampa Bay Rays. Boston's .400 winning percentage was the lowest for the franchise since the 1965 Red Sox finished with a .383 winning percentage (62–100). Average television viewership for Red Sox games broadcast by NESN fell by 54% from 2019 figures, the largest drop of the 25 MLB teams reporting viewership data.[7][8]

Offseason

The team completed its 2019 season with interim executive leadership, as Brian O'Halloran, Eddie Romero, Zack Scott, and Raquel Ferreira oversaw baseball operations following the September 9 dismissal of Dave Dombrowski, president of baseball operations.[9] As the season came to a close, principal owner John W. Henry and chairman Tom Werner stated that they want the team to get its payroll under the Major League Baseball luxury tax threshold.[10] The team's 2019 payroll of $243 million was $37 million over the $206 million threshold, resulting in the team paying $13 million in luxury tax.[10] The 2020 threshold was set at $208 million.[10]

Regular season

On July 6, MLB announced the revised 2020 regular-season schedule—"each team will play a regionally based schedule featuring 40 divisional games and 20 Interleague games against the corresponding geographical division."[86] The Red Sox' opponents:[87]

† The Blue Jays' home ballpark during the 2020 regular season was Sahlen Field in Buffalo, New York.[88] One game postponed in Buffalo was played in Boston, with the Red Sox batting as the away team (counts as a home game in statistics).

Game log

Revised schedules for 2020 were released on July 6.[101] MLB scheduled the Red Sox to play a total of 60 games against nine opponents[102][103][104]—four in the American League East and five in the National League East—involving travel to Washington, D.C. (Nationals) and five states outside of Massachusetts: Florida (Marlins and Rays), Georgia (Braves), Maryland (Orioles), New York (Mets, Yankees, and Blue Jays), and Pennsylvania (Phillies).

On July 24, it was announced that the Blue Jays would play their 2020 home games at Sahlen Field in Buffalo, New York.[88] On August 6, MLB announced changes to several teams' schedules; changes for the Red Sox were:[105]

Doubleheaders during the 2020 regular season consisted of two seven-inning games (with extra innings played in the event of a tie). All extra innings played during the 2020 regular season began with a runner on second base, with the runner being the player in the batting order immediately before the first batter of the inning (example: if a team's first batter in an extra inning was fifth in the order, the runner placed on second base was the player batting fourth).[106]

† In the second game on September 4, Toronto was the home team.[108]

Notable transactions of/for players on the 40-man roster during the 2020 regular season:

Amateur draft

Boston's selections in the 2020 MLB draft, held on June 10–11, are listed below.[118] The team did not have a second-round pick, as punishment from MLB's investigation about electronic sign-stealing by the 2018 Red Sox.[66] The draft was limited to five rounds, per agreement reached in March 2020 between MLB and the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA).[119] The deadline to sign drafted players was August 1, 2020.[120]

Farm system

Minor league managerial assignments were announced by the Red Sox on January 16, 2020.[124] The only change from the prior season was Sandy Madera, named to manage one of the Dominican Summer League teams. In March, MLB Pipeline ranked the Red Sox' farm system 25th, in their evaluation of the minor league organizations of all 30 MLB teams.[125] On June 30, it was announced that the 2020 Minor League Baseball season would not be played, another impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sports.[76]
