Red Sox option Chris Mazza and Matt Hall

Teams all around the league have until noon ET on Thursday to cut their rosters down from 30 to 28 players. Originally, the plan for this season had been for teams to start at 30 players, then cut down to 28 after two weeks and cut down to 26 two weeks after that before staying at that size for the final month or so of the season. This season has, of course, been ever-evolving, though, and the league and players agreed to keep with this scheduled cut to 28 players but keep that roster size the rest of the year.
