On bench Sunday Gasper is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Though he'll head to the bench while southpaw Matt Wilkinson starts for the Giants, the switch-hitting Gasper looks to have moved into a regular role as the Red Sox's designated hitter versus right-handed pitching since being recalled from Triple-A Worcester a week ago. While starting in each of Boston's last five games, Gasper went 5-for-15 with three home runs, one double, two walks, eight RBI and three runs.

Homers in three straight Gaspar served as the designated hitter and went 1-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in Wednedsay's 7-6 extra-inning loss to Arizona.

Impact Gaspar gave the Red Sox a jolt in the bottom of the sixth inning, when he launched a three-run homer that tied the game after the Diamondbacks extended their lead in the top of the frame. It was the third straight game with a homer for Gaspar, who had gone deep just twice over 92 career games in the majors prior to his call-up this week. The switch hitter has served as the DH in three consecutive contests, all against right-handers. He was eventually pinch hit for against a left-hander in the eighth.

Goes deep again in win Gasper went 2-for-2 with a home run, two walks and two RBI in Tuesday's 9-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Gasper was perfect at the plate, highlighted by a solo blast in the sixth inning. The 30-year-old has now homered in back-to-back games since rejoining the Red Sox on Monday. He's slashed .254/.323/.368 with eight extra-base hits, 11 RBI and 13 runs scored across 128 major-league plate appearances and is earning himself a chance to stick around during his second stint with the big club this season.

AUGUST 18 • Associated Press

Smashes first homer of 2026 Gasper went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and an RBI groundout during Bostons' 11-1 win over Arizona on Monday.

Impact The Red Sox needed another bat in the lineup after Masataka Yoshida (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday and Jahmai Jones (undisclosed) was a late scratch from the lineup. Gasper got the call from Triple-A Worcester, and he contributed immediately with a solo long ball in the seventh inning, his first in the majors this season and third of his big-league career. He could see additional reps at DH if Jones' absence extends beyond Monday's series opener.

Red Sox outfielder Masataka Yoshida is sidelined by a strained left hamstring

AUGUST 16 • Associated Press

Summoned to majors The Red Sox recalled Gasper from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

Impact Gasper will be back with the Red Sox for the first time since late June, joining the active roster as a replacement for the injured Masataka Yoshida (hamstring). Adley Rutschman will occupy Yoshida's usual spot at designated hitter in Sunday's series finale in Pittsburgh, but Gasper could get some looks in that spot in the lineup while Yoshida is likely out until at least the start of September. During his time in the majors this season, Gasper has slashed .243/.305/.308 with no home runs or stolen bases, 11 runs and seven RBI across 119 plate appearances.

AUGUST 16 • ROTOWIRE

Optioned to Triple-A The Red Sox optioned Gasper to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact The 30-year-old received fairly regular playing time between catcher and designated hitter at times in June, but his .486 OPS in 17 games this month will result in him being demoted. Romy Gonzalez (shoulder) is coming off the injured list to claim the open roster spot.

Sitting Saturday Gasper isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

Impact Gasper appears to have moved down a spot on the depth chart, as he will move to the bench for the fourth time in Boston's last five games while Carlos Narvaez starts behind the plate for the third time in the team's last four.

Sitting against lefty again Gasper is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Impact Gasper is a switch-hitter, but he's fared much better against right-handed pitching both this season and throughout his big-league career. The Red Sox will thus keep Gasper on the bench for a second straight day while the Rockies send another lefty starter (Kyle Freeland) to the hill.

JUNE 24 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Gasper will rest on the bench Tuesday after going 1-for-5 with two walks across the last two games since Sunday. Connor Wong has the start at catcher and is batting eighth.

Sitting down Saturday Gasper is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mariners, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Impact Gasper has taken over as the No. 1 option in Boston's catching trio and is even seeing regular run in the leadoff spot, but he will get a night off after three consecutive starts. Newcomer Anthony Seigler will lead off Saturday while Carlos Narvaez catches for rookie Connelly Early.
