Boston Red Sox players who have tried, failed, and departed

This season has gone poorly for several Boston Red Sox players or former players. The first is Marwin Gonzalez, who the team signed as a free agent. Gonzalez is now an ex-Red Sox, and as part of the divorce settlement, the 32-year-old switch hitter will receive $789,000 that remains on his $3 million contract.
