The perfect Halloween costume for every Boston Red Sox player
Red Sox bullpen pitchers’ Halloween costumes
Garrett Whitlock: Maverick
Because the rookie is the Boston bullpen’s Top Gun, obviously.
Adam Ottavino: Babe Ruth
Ottavino once bragged about being able to strike out Babe Ruth, so it’s only fitting that he’d dress up as the Great Bambino. They both pitched for the Sox and Yankees, too and were two of the rivalry’s rare trades, if you can call selling Ruth for cash a “trade.”
Darwinzon Hernandez: Wild Thing
Like Charlie Sheen’s iconic character in the film Major League, Hernandez is unpredictable on the mound. It’s an easy costume, too: glasses, a baseball uniform, and the song blasting from his phone at all times.
Josh Taylor: a Tailor
Taylor the Tailor could make all of his teammates’ Halloween costumes; it’s a costume that’s fun and a productive play on words.
Hirokazu Sawamura: Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The newcomer’s nickname this season was Saw-Man, and he loves to carve up batters.
Matt Barnes: Barnacle Boy
On Spongebob Squarepants, Barnacle Boy has the power to throw balls of concentrated water. Hopefully, Barnes gets back to throwing more concentrated pitches next season.
Red Sox infielders’ Halloween costumes
Xander Bogaerts & Rafael Devers: Chandler and Joey from FRIENDS
Like Chandler and Joey, Bogaerts and Devers aren’t brothers by birth, but their sweet and funny friendship makes them brothers by choice.
Christian Arroyo: Bronson Arroyo
Every time the booth talked about Christian Arroyo this season, he wasn’t the Arroyo that came to mind. I’d avoid bringing back the blonde cornrows, but the new Arroyo as the old Arroyo would be hilarious.
Christian Vazquez: Bane
Because nobody cared who he was until he put on the mask.
Kevin Plawecki: Wreck-It Ralph
Actually, Weck-it Ralph.
Kyle Schwarber: a Waltham Firefighter
Schwarber endeared himself to the people of Massachusetts, especially Waltham. He’d fit right in with the firefighters to whom he sent pizza during the postseason.
Bobby Dalbec: a baseball robot
By all accounts, Dalbec eats, sleeps, and breathes baseball.
JD Martinez: a fisherman
Martinez’s love for fishing is well-documented on his social media. It would be an easy costume for the Miami native, considering it’s what he’ll be doing all offseason anyway.
Red Sox outfielders’ Halloween costumes
Hunter Renfroe: The Winter Soldier
Much like the man previously known as Bucky Barnes, Hunter Renfroe now has an absolute weapon for an arm.
Kiké Hernández: a banana
We know Kiké already has a banana costume, and there’s nothing unapPEELing about repeating!
Alex Verdugo: Howard from Uncut Gems
Verdugo has some of the best bling on the team, so he’d make a perfect Howard (Adam Sandler) from Uncut Gems.
He could also be SpongeBob since his love for the absorbent, yellow, porous square is represented in gemstone form.
