September is here. Summer is slowly slipping away, the playoff picture is taking shape, and the Boston Red Sox have more players on their active roster than they know what to do with.
MLB allows clubs to add any player from their 40-man roster for the final stretch of the season. The Red Sox took advantage of the roster expansion immediately, adding eight players on September 1.
