I continue the All-time tour with my beloved Boston Red Sox. 

Since we’re dealing with over a century and thousands of players I will assume the DH role for both leagues.  I will limit the teams to 25 players.  I’ll carry 13 batters and 12 pitchers for each team.  With baseball season around the corner, what better time to take this journey.  The teams are based on the stats the players produced with the team so David Ortiz, for example, isn’t there yet for the Red Sox.  I may tinker with the lineups slightly to get the best roster possible.
