Clay Daniel Buchholz, #61
Born: 8/14/84 Height: 6'3" Weight: 190 Bats: Left Throws: Right Position: P
Buchholz started the year in Double A, but moved up quickly. He picked up the win in his major league debut, starting the first game of a doubleheader in August. He worked his way into Red Sox lore in his second major league start, when he threw a no-hitter against the Baltmore Orioles on September 1. He made two more appearances before being shut down because of concerns over the number of innings he had pitched in only his second full professional season.

Moss was called up for a weekend series in Anaheim in August while Eric Hinske was away attending a funeral.

Two days later he made his first start and picked up his first major league hit, scoring the go-ahead run in a crucial eighth inning rally. He was called back up in September and got four more starts.

Joel Alberto Piñeiro, #36
Born: 9/25/78 Height: 6'1" Weight: 180 Bats: Right Throws: Right Position: P
Piñeiro was primarily a starter in his career with the Seattle Mariners, but the Red Sox signed him in the off-season with the hopes that he could fill the closer role. Once Jonathan Papelbon was moved back to the bullpen, Piñeiro took over long relief duties. He struck out three in a perfect 1 2/3-inning stint in Texas during a one-run victory in May, earning the win. At the end of July, he was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals for a player to be named later (minor leaguer Sean Danielson).

Born: 6/4/76 Height: 5'11" Weight: 195 Bats: Switch Throws: Left Position: P
Romero was signed by the Red Sox as a free agent in the off-season, and appeared in 23 games.

He was released in June and signed with the Philadelphia Phillies for the remainder of the season.

|
Julian Carmen Tavarez, #51
Born: 5/22/73 Height: 6'2" Weight: 195 Bats: Left Throws: Right Position: P
Tavarez started the year in the rotation, and pitched well despite getting matched up against other teams' aces like Roy Halladay, Johan Santana, Dan Haren, and Chien-Ming Wang. His best start was May 17 against Detroit, when he went seven innings in a 2-1 win. When Jon Lester returned to the rotation, Tavarez went to the pen, where he remained flexible enough to make a few more spot starts whenever needed.
