The 2020 Boston Red Sox season was the 120th season in the team's history, and their 109th season at Fenway Park. The team entered spring training with a new leader in baseball operations, Chaim Bloom, and a new field manager, Ron Roenicke.

Henry and chairman Tom Werner stated that they want the team to get its payroll under the Major League Baseball luxury tax threshold.^[10] The team's 2019 payroll of $243 million was $37 million over the $206 million threshold, resulting in the team paying $13 million in luxury tax.^[10] The 2020 threshold was set at $208 million.^[10]

Game log

Revised schedules for 2020 were released on July 6.^[101] MLB scheduled the Red Sox to play a total of 60 games against nine opponents^[102]^[103]^[104]—four in the American League East and five in the National League East—involving travel to Washington, D.C. (Nationals) and five states outside of Massachusetts: Florida (Marlins and Rays), Georgia (Braves), Maryland (Orioles), New York (Mets, Yankees, and Blue Jays), and Pennsylvania (Phillies).

On July 24, it was announced that the Blue Jays would play their 2020 home games at Sahlen Field in Buffalo, New York.^[88] On August 6, MLB announced changes to several teams' schedules; changes for the Red Sox were:^[105]

Phillies at Red Sox: August 19 game time changed from 7:05 p.m. to 1:35 p.m.
Red Sox at Phillies: games of September 8–9 changed to a doubleheader on September 8
Red Sox at Marlins: games of September 14–16 moved to September 15–17

Doubleheaders during the 2020 regular season consisted of two seven-inning games (with extra innings played in the event of a tie). All extra innings played during the 2020 regular season began with a runner on second base, with the runner being the player in the batting order immediately before the first batter of the inning (example: if a team's first batter in an extra inning was fifth in the order, the runner placed on second base was the player batting fourth).^[106]
