Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team.  That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity.  As such, we are very happy to present our post 2022 revision of our top 50 Boston Red Sox.

As for all of our top 50 players in baseball we look at the following:

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the American League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Red Sox had one of their worst seasons in years, and there were no new entrants, with only one elevation.

As always, we present our top five, which had no changes.

1. Ted Williams

2. Carl Yastrzemski

3. Roger Clemens

4. Wade Boggs

5. Cy Young

You can find the entire list here.

The only change came from the now San Diego Padre, Xander Bogaerts, who jumped to #21 from #29 off his fourth (and final) All-Star with Boston.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.

From Aruba, Xander Bogaerts is one of the best players to ever emerge from that Caribbean island.

Signed in 2009, Bogaerts made it the Red Sox in 2013, and was an everyday infielder for Boston the following season. Boegarts won the Silver Slugger in 2015, which he followed up the following year with his first All-Star Game. Showing power, Boegarts has had three 20-plus Home Run years, peaking with 33 (with 117 RBIs) in 2019.  That season, Boegarts was fifth in MVP voting and was the All-MLB 1 Selection.  Boegarts was also a key cog in the Red Sox 2018 World Series win.

When full-season play returned in 2021, Bogaerts again proved upper-tier, adding another Silver Slugger and All-Star with a 23 Home Run/.295 Year, and was even better in 2022, adding a fourth All-Star with a .307 Batting Average.

In a move that would have seemed unthinkable only years before, Bogearts departed for the San Diego Padres as a Free Agent.  With the BoSox, he had 155 Home Runs, 1,410 Hits with a .292 Batting Average.
