- #5 - Jayson Nix
- #15 - Wilson Betemit
- #17 - Chris Getz (a change from last year when he donned #39)
- #18 - Brent Lillibridge
- #38 - Cole Armstrong
- #40 - Bartolo Colon
- #48 - Jeff Marquez
- #57 - Kelvin Jimenez
However, one of the new numbers that really caught me by surprise was Dayan Viciedo taking #24. Take that Crede, you haven't even found a new team yet and we're giving your number to a guy who plays the same position as you. Seems like one last dig at Joe for their messy divorce. Now, I'm probably overreacting and I probably take number assignments too seriously, but my immediate reaction was still, "Wow, that was fast." Of course, upon further research, I remembered that the Sox gave away Aaron Rowand's number the first season after his trade to Philadelphia, even though he and the Sox seperated amicably. But at least Javier was an established vet who didn't play center field.
