DSL Red Sox

From BR Bullpen


The DSL Red Sox have represented the Boston Red Sox in the Dominican Summer League since 1997 (except 2003), one of the latest MLB franchises to place a team in the DSL. In 2003, the DSL Red Sox were replaced by the DSL Red Sox 1 and DSL Red Sox 2. The Red Sox had previously sent players to co-op teams: the 1989 DSL Red Sox/Orioles/Brewers, 1990 DSL Tigers/Padres/Red Sox, and 1996 DSL Astros/Red Sox. Additionally, the Red Sox sent players to a second team in 2000-2001, the 2000 DSL Diamondbacks/Red Sox and 2001 DSL Indians/Red Sox. DSL Red Sox 1 and DSL Red Sox 2 returned for 2015. In 2021 the teams became the DSL Red Sox Blue and DSL Red Sox Red.
