Red Sox teammates reportedly disappointed

The Red Sox’ 2024 season officially came to a close on Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park.

But Boston’s All-Star closer, Kenley Jansen, left Fenway Park a few days earlier.

Alex Cora revealed on Friday that Jansen “went home” ahead of Boston’s final series of the 2024 campaign — just a few days after the team was finally eliminated from postseason contention.

Even though Jansen was placed on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation last Sunday and was not expected to pitch the rest of the year, his early absence before Game 162 wrapped was still an interesting decision by one of the few veterans in the clubhouse.

And according to MassLive’s Sean McAdam, Jansen’s decision to pack his bags before the 2024 season wrapped drew the ire of several of his teammates.

“Multiple players, all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity, registered their disappointment over Jansen’s early departure, though one added: “I can’t say I’m too surprised.” Jansen was known to be somewhat aloof during his time with the Sox, at times unsure of some teammates’ names,”
