The 2026 Boston Red Sox season is the ongoing 126th season in Boston Red Sox franchise history, and their 115th season at Fenway Park. The team opened the regular season in an away game against the Cincinnati Reds on March 26, and is scheduled to conclude the season with a home game against the Chicago Cubs on September 27.[4]

After a 10–17 (.370) start, the Red sox fired manager Alex Cora on April 25.[5][a] Triple-A Worcester Red Sox manager Chad Tracy was subsequently named as the team's interim manager.[7]

On July 22, the team won its 15th game in a row to tie the franchise record for consecutive games won, established 80 years earlier by the 1946 Red Sox.[8] At the end of the month, the Red Sox' 21–4 (.840) record set a new record for their highest monthly winning percentage in franchise history.[9][b]

Offseason

At the conclusion of the 2025 season, the Red Sox had 11 players under contract for the 2026 season: Roman Anthony, Brayan Bello, Kristian Campbell, Aroldis Chapman, Garrett Crochet, Jarren Duran, Jordan Hicks, Ceddanne Rafaela, Patrick Sandoval, Garrett Whitlock, and Masataka Yoshida.[11] Four players had contract options and/or opt-outs, four players were eligible to become free agents, nine players were eligible for arbitration, and an additional 22 players were not yet eligible for arbitration due to their limited service time in MLB, and could therefore be retained by the team for the league-minimum salary or released.[11]

Spring training

The team's equipment departed Fenway Park on February 2, colloquially known as "Truck Day", in preparation for their arrival in Fort Myers, Florida to begin Spring Training.[55]

The Red Sox' first spring training was an exhibition contest against the Northeastern Huskies at Fenway South on February 20.[56] The team's Grapefruit League schedule ran from February 21 through March 24, including a game on March 3 against Puerto Rico as one of Puerto Rico's friendly preparation games ahead of the 2026 World Baseball Classic.[56] The Red Sox compiled a 13–16 record across their Grapefruit League contests.[57]

2026 World Baseball Classic

The World Baseball Classic (WBC), an international baseball tournament held every three to six years, took place from March 5 to March 17. The WBC coincided with MLB's spring training schedule, so the following Red Sox players did not take part in the full spring training schedule:[58][59]

Jovani MoránPitcher Puerto Rico
Ceddanne RafaelaUtility Netherlands
Ranger SuárezPitcher Venezuela
Greg WeissertPitcher Italy

Masataka YoshidaOutfielder Japan

Eight Red Sox players were on teams which reached the semifinal round of the WBC,[60] and four players appeared in the final: Anthony and Whitlock for the United States and Abreu and Contreras for Venezuela.[61] Abreu, Contreras, and Suárez were crowned champions of the tournament after Venezuela defeated the U.S. 3–2 in the final, and Anthony was subsequently named to the All-WBC Team.[62]
