Venezuelan Summer League Red Sox


The Venezuelan Summer League Red Sox, sometimes called the VSL Red Sox, were a Minor League Baseball affiliate of the Boston Red Sox of Major League Baseball, playing in the foreign Venezuelan Summer League. The team, classed as a Rookie League franchise, operated between 1999 and 2005. The VSL itself operated from 1997 to 2015.
During most seasons the team operated, it was a cooperative between the Red Sox and one or two other MLB teams. When the team was listed in Red Sox media guides, it was simply referred to as the "VSL Red Sox", although other sources show the team operated under several different names.
