DiSarcina used 64 different players (30 position players and 34 pitchers), and saw Pawtucket promote 23 different players to Boston over the course of the season.

The skipper will not be back with Pawtucket in 2014, as he was hired by the Los Angeles Angels following the season to be their new third base coach.
