Depth Chart

See below depth chart for the key.

For hitters, the depth chart reaches down to those that would be considered a fill-in in case of injury.

For pitchers, the ‘in reserve’ category on the depth chart are bullpen guys that could step in to start, plus Triple-A Pawtucket pitchers. The final category is self explanatory.

Bold indicates the player is on the 40-man roster.
Bold italics indicates the player is on the active roster. Only noted in-season.
An asterisk (*) next to a pitcher’s name indicates they are a left-handed pitcher.

DFA: Player is designated for assignment. Team has 10 days to option/waive to minors, release or trade player. Unless player is clearly done with Sox, any DFA’d player remains on Sox depth chart in the assumption they head to Triple-A.

In the off-season, a balance is struck between a team’s current depth chart and identifying spots that will be filled from an unknown player (noted as TBD — To Be Determined).
