9/18/24 Red Sox Closer Kenley Jansen Pushed Through Injury Vs. Rays. It's very seldom Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora takes a trip to the mound in the bottom of the ninth inning with closer Kenley Jansen on the mound. Cora knew there was a far chance Jansen would come out of the game, though. "No," Cora told reporters with a laugh when asked if he could have envisioned Jansen allowing his manager to pull him one out from a save.

9/17/24 Red Sox Star Projected To Receive $72 Million Making Things Difficult. The Boston Red Sox will have some talented players hit free agency this winter. Boston has had an up-and-down 2024 season. While this is the case, the Red Sox have gotten plenty of consistency from star closer Kenley Jansen. Jansen has shined for Boston and has a 3.48 ERA and 26 saves in 51 appearances.

9/15/24 Dodgers Are Threat To Sign Red Sox $32 Million Star, Per Insider. When free agency kicks off, some members of the Boston Red Sox could end up going in a different direction. Boston has a bright future but hasn't been able to truly contend over the last few years. The Red Sox hopefully will be looking for ways to change that fact this winter, but there also could be a roster crunch. The most interesting player to keep an eye on over the next few months is star closer Kenley Jansen.

9/14/24 As Kenley Jansen reflects on 'disappointing' Red Sox time, Yankees loom as threat in free agency. The Red Sox will play their final game at Yankee Stadium this season Sunday afternoon. When they return to the Bronx on June 6, could closer Kenley Jansen be on the other side? According to major league sources, the Yankees made a serious run at Jansen before he signed a two-year, $32 million contract with Boston in Dec. 2022. With mercurial All-Star Clay Holmes heading for free agency after the season, it's more than likely the Yankees look to add a big-time piece at the back end of their relief corps.

9/14/24 Kenley Jansen's brutally honest admission will get Red Sox fans' attention. Kenley Jansen has been one of the best players on the Boston Red Sox during his two-year tenure with the team. With the Red Sox on the verge of missing the postseason this year, Jansen spoke out about his time in Boston. Jansen gave a surprisingly honest reflection about how he feels about his Red Sox career as he approaches free agency in an interview with Chris Cotillo of MassLive on Saturday. “I don't know what to say,” Jansen continued.

9/13/24 Why Kenley Jansen Believes Red Sox Have 'Bright' Future. The Red Sox hope to close out this month strong, but they've also built a strong foundation for continued success. Boston is 4 1/2 games out of the final American League wild-card spot heading into Friday's matchup against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium. Alex Cora's side continues to fight through each game in every series, but the veterans know this experience will help the team in the long run.

9/07/24 Red Sox closer dealing with injury that could shut him down for a while. The Boston Red Sox earned a 3-1 win on Friday night against the Chicago White Sox at Fenway Park, but even when there's good news, bad news must follow for the club this year. Speaking with The Boston Globe's Julian McWilliams, Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen disclosed an injury that he's dealing with. “I won't pitch until this [calms] down,” Jansen said on Friday. Jansen's last outing was arguably his worst of the season, as he recorded just one out and allowed a single, three walks and a run.

9/06/24 Red Sox's Kenley Jansen Reveals Reason For Absence Vs. White Sox. The Boston Red Sox entered the ninth inning with a 3-1 lead over the Chicago White Sox to begin their three-game series at Fenway Park on Friday night, which is the ideal situation for manager Alex Cora to call upon closer Kenley Jansen. Jansen hasn't pitched since Wednesday night's brutal relief appearance against the New York Mets in which the 36-year-old entered a one-run game in the bottom of the eighth inning. The Mets rallied around Jansen by drawing three walks, including one that forced in a run, before being charged with four earned runs and forcing Cora to re-signal to the bullpen as Boston took its fifth consecutive trip to the loss column.

8/22/24 Red Sox Should Steal Elite Reliever Away From Phillies In Free Agency. If the Boston Red Sox don't add an impact arm or two to their bullpen this winter, it will have been a failed offseason. Boston has to decide what to do about Kenley Jansen, who will be a free agent. Jansen turns 37 years old next month, and if chief baseball officer Craig Breslow decides to move on from Jansen, it will be because Jansen is demanding too high of a deal or because Breslow has found someone younger. The best move for Breslow and Boston could be to let Jansen walk and sign a younger star reliever who can be around for the next five years or so as the Red Sox's offensive core grows into its prime.

8/20/24 Diaz homers in ninth inning to lift Astros to 5-4 win over Red Sox. Yainer Diaz’s tiebreaking solo homer with one out in the ninth inning lifted the Houston Astros to a 5-4 win over the Boston Red Sox. The Astros tied it on an RBI single by Mauricio Dubón in the eighth inning. Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen (3-2) struck out Yordan Alvarez on three pitches before Diaz, who also homered Sunday, sent the next pitch to left-center field to give Houston its 11th victory in 12 games.

8/19/24 Diaz homers in ninth inning to lift Astros to 5-4 win over Red Sox. Yainer Diaz’s tiebreaking solo homer with one out in the ninth inning lifted the Houston Astros to a 5-4 win over the Boston Red Sox on Monday night. The Astros tied it on an RBI single by Mauricio Dubón in the eighth inning. Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen (3-2) struck out Yordan Alvarez on three pitches in the ninth before Diaz, who also homered Sunday, sent the next pitch deep to left-center field to give Houston its 11th victory in 12 games.

8/16/24 Red Sox's Kenley Jansen Explains Purpose Behind Bullpen Ritual. The Boston Red Sox underwent a back-and-forth 22-run slugfest with the division-rival Baltimore Orioles on Friday night, coming away with a 12-10 victory on the road that required some assistance from closer Kenley Jansen. Jansen was called upon to shut the door down in the bottom of the ninth inning, just after Baltimore scored four runs in its previous two frames at the plate to cut Boston's lead down to a feasible two-run deficit.

8/14/24 Red Sox blow three-run lead in ninth, lose heartbreaker to Rangers in 10 innings. Perhaps in the top of the ninth on what should have been the game's final play. The Sox had just rallied for three runs in the eighth to turn a 4-4 game into a seemingly comfortable 7-4 advantage. Closer Kenley Jansen was unavailable. Setup man Chris Martin, who'd been earmarked for the ninth, instead had to enter the game in the eighth to clean up the mess of Luis García, who'd allowed two runs to turn a 4-2 advantage into a 4-4 tie.

8/11/24 3 Red Sox who survived the trade deadline but won't have the same offseason fate. In the weeks leading up to the trade deadline, rumors flew about potential Boston Red Sox who could've been on the move. But, as the trade deadline approached, the Sox only began to look better. They held on to many of their best trade pieces and opted to buy. Boston got off to a rough start after the All-Star break, but it's won its three series since the trade deadline. Some of the most prominent Red Sox trade deadline rumors surrounded Kenley Jansen. The front office looked to trade the veteran closer over the 2023-24 offseason with no success, and rumblings that it would dish him at the deadline began early in the campaign. Besides a few rough outings against his former club in Los Angeles,

8/03/24 New Red Sox Pitcher Eager To Help Boston Return To Postseason. Luis García arrived at the Red Sox before the MLB trade deadline and was reunited with familiar faces, and he shares the same eagerness the club has amid their playoff push. García provides Boston with another arm in the bullpen and is an ideal set-up option for Kenley Jansen, who he played with in 2006 on the Gulf Coast League Dodgers, while Justin Slaten remains on the injured list. The veteran reliever also is reunited with pitching coach Andrew Bailey as he seeks to make an impact on a team he grew up watching. "When I was a kid, my dad (Amado) used to watch a lot of baseball and he was a Boston fan," García told The Boston Globe's Pete Abraham.

7/31/24 Red Sox' Kenley Jansen hurt in win after slipping on mound. The Red Sox didn't escape a dramatic, extra-innings win over the Mariners without an injury scare involving one of their key players. Closer Kenley Jansen appeared to suffer a lower back injury during his ninth-inning appearance in Boston's 3-2 walk-off win Wednesday. After uncharacteristically entering for the ninth inning in a tie game, Jansen got two quick outs before issuing a walk to Randy Arozarena. At that point, he crouched down behind the mound in discomfort; manager Alex Cora and a team trainer came out to visit him.

(Photo by Brian Fluharty/Getty Images) Getty Images By Chris Cotillo | ccotillo@MassLive.com BOSTON — Kenley Jansen had the Yankees down to their last strike facing a hitter who is batting .185 this year. That's usually a good spot for the Red Sox to be in. On Saturday, it was not. Light-hitting outfielder Trent Grisham hit a two-out game-tying double in the ninth as Jansen blew his second save in three tries and the Yankees rallied for three runs against mop-up man Chase Anderson in the 10th as New York won a dramatic, back-and-forth game, 11-8.

Last weekend, Jansen suffered back-to-back blow-ups (including a ninth-inning blown save) at Dodger Stadium as the Red Sox dropped the first three games of the second half. Then, Jansen was forced to remain in Los Angeles as the Red Sox traveled to Denver, wary of again triggering some heart issues in the high altitude of the Rocky Mountains. BetMGM BET UP TO $1,500!
