Bloom off rose Toro went 0-for-4 in Friday's 9-0 loss to Toronto.

Impact Toro was a nice story earlier this month, but the corner infielder has been in a prolonged slump. After Friday's 0-fer, he's batting .138 (4-for-29) with one extra-base hit and zero RBI over the last nine games. He and Romy Gonzalez continue to serve as a band-aid at first base, but with Kristian Campbell getting starts at first base for Triple-A Worcester, a better option could emerge soon.

Sitting out second straight Toro is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Angels.

Impact Toro is out of the lineup in back-to-back games after starting the previous eight and 21 of the last 22 tilts. The Red Sox are facing a lefty in Yusei Kikuchi for the second day in a row, and the switch-hitting Toro has been much better versus righties (.831 OPS, five home runs) than lefties (.679 OPS, zero home runs). Romy Gonzalez and Nate Eaton will handle first base and third base, respectively.

Rafael Devers Says He'll Play 'Wherever' The Giants Want Him To Play

Delivers two-out RBI in win Toro went 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Monday's 2-0 win over Seattle.

Impact Toro's two-out single in the third inning drove in Boston's second run. He's recently moved up the batting order against right-handers -- Toro hit third against the three previous righties faced -- and batted second Monday, the spot that had belonged to Rafael Devers for much of the season. He'll continue to hold the strongside of a platoon at first base and could get starts at third base, when Red Sox manager Alex Cora doesn't want to expose Marcelo Mayer to a southpaw. Toro is batting .317/.345/.538 with five home runs, eight doubles, 13 RBI and 15 runs scored over 30 games.

Has double-digit on-base streak Toro started as first base and went 1-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Monday's 10-8 extra-innings loss to the Rays.

Impact There was much turmoil caused by Rafael Devers' refusal to play first base and Boston's scrapped experiment with Kristian Campbell to move there, but Toro may have been the answer all along. He's reached base safely in 10 consecutive games, going 17-for-40 (.425) with five doubles, one home run and seven RBI during the streak. Toro is slashing .333/.352/.563 over 25 games for Boston, but it's fair to question if he can sustain that over the long haul.

Shifts to third base Toro started at third base and went 1-for-4 in Monday's 7-6 loss to the Angels.

Impact Toro, who had been the regular starter at first base shifted to third base while Romy Gonzalez, fresh off the injured list, started at first. Toro is batting .306 with an .822 OPS over 19 games since his contract was selected from Triple-A Worcester. The two could share the position going forward after Red Sox manager Alex Cora scrapped a plan to give Kristian Campbell starts there.

Settling in at first base Toro will start at first base and bat cleanup in Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Impact At least in the short term, Toro appears to have emerged as the Red Sox's preferred option at first base. He'll pick up his third straight start at the position, after going 4-for-7 with a double, an RBI and a run through the first two contests in Atlanta to boost his OPS to .833 over 54 plate appearances on the season. Though Triston Casas (knee) is done for the season, Toro will need to continue to perform well to maintain his hold on an everyday role, however. Romy Gonzalez (quadriceps) is in the midst of a rehab assignment and could return from the 10-day injured list later this week to push Toro for playing time, while Kristian Campbell has taken pregame reps at first base in recent weeks and could soon make his debut at the position.
