Romy Gonzalez - Page 12 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Lands on injured list Gonzalez (back) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday.

Impact Gonzalez began dealing with the back issue Wednesday and has sat two games since. The move is retroactive to May 8, though Gonzalez's timeline to return is unclear. Gonzalez's injury also makes Boston's first base situation even more dire, with Abraham Toro projected to see the majority of playing time at the position.

May require IL stint Manager Alex Cora said Friday that Gonzalez (back) could spend some time on the injured list, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Impact No official move has been made just yet, but the Red Sox skipper hinted toward possible roster moves Saturday that could involve Gonzalez, who hasn't played since colliding with the Rangers' Josh Smith on Wednesday. Abraham Toro has been filling in at first base recently with Gonzalez injured and Triston Casas (knee) out for the season.

Rafael Devers tells Red Sox front office to 'do their jobs' and find a 1B

Weekend return possible Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Thursday that Gonzalez (back) is still sore but believes the infielder will be ready at some point this weekend, MLB.com reports.

Impact Gonzalez was held out of Thursday's series finale against Rangers after sustaining the injury during Wednesday's game when he ran into Texas first baseman Josh Smith. Abraham Toro started at first base Thursday.

MLB roundtable: Is the Cubs' hot start too good to be true?

Sitting due to stiff back Gonzalez (back) is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rangers, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Impact Gonzalez has been serving as Boston's primary option at first base since Triston Casas suffered a ruptured patella tendon Friday, but the former was forced out of Wednesday's 6-4 win due to back stiffness and will need at least one game off to recover. Abraham Toro will step in at first base in Thursday's series finale.

Battling back stiffness Gonzalez was pulled from Wednesday's game against the Rangers due to back stiffness, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Impact Manager Alex Cora said after the game that the 28-year-old infielder is fine after his collision with Texas' Josh Smith, though Gonzalez's back stiffened up on him following the incident. The Red Sox may elect to hold him out of Thursday's series finale as a precaution, though he should avoid an extended absence.

Red Sox 1B Romy Gonzalez leaves game after collision at first, running out grounder

Boston Red Sox first baseman Romy Gonzalez left the game after colliding with Texas Rangers first baseman Josh Smith while trying to beat out an infield hit on Wednesday

MAY 8, 2025 • Associated Press

Exits after collision Gonzalez was removed from Wednesday's game against the Rangers after a collision with Josh Smith, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Gonzalez was down on the ground for a few minutes immediately after running into Smith, but the former was able to walk it off. He then jogged out to play first base at the top of the seventh inning but was quickly called back into the dugout in favor of Abraham Toro. The fact that Gonzalez was willing to go back out on defense is a good sign that his removal was precautionary, but the Red Sox should offer some clarity after the game.

Alex Cora Saw This Growth From Red Sox First Base Option Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora trusts the growth he's seen from infielder Romy Gonzalez at first base over the last year.

MAY 7, 2025 • NESN.COM

Out of Tuesday's lineup Gonzalez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rangers, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Impact The 28-year-old started the past two games at first base in the wake of Triston Casas' knee injury, but Abraham Toro will make his first start of the season Tuesday. Gonzalez has a .327/.382/.449 slash line with six RBI and three steals through 55 plate appearances this season, and he's likely to operate as Boston's primary first baseman as long as he continues to carry a hot bat.

MAY 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starts at first base again Gonzalez started at first base and went 1-for-2 with an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 5-4 loss to Minnesota.

Impact Gonzalez started at first base for both games since Triston Casas went down with a season-ending knee injury Friday. Gonzalez is relatively new to the position -- he played 18 games there last season and was part of platoon in 2025 -- and it's unclear that he'll be the permanent fill-in for Casas. He's been consistent all season, hitting safely in nine of 11 starts and enters Monday's day off with a .327/.382/.449 line, three steals, six RBI and 10 runs scored over 16 games.

Hits three singles Saturday Gonzalez went 3-for-4 in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Twins.

Impact Gonzalez got the start at first base Saturday and belted three singles while batting in the sixth spot in the lineup. He's expected to see the bulk of starts at first base in the short term after Triston Casas ruptured his left patellar tendon in Friday's game, with Abraham Toro providing depth at the position. How Gonzalez plays over the coming days and weeks will play a factor in how the Red Sox address the position, either internally through the farm system or externally via trade, per Ian Browne of MLB.com.

Red Sox 1B Triston Casas out for rest of season after rupturing left knee tendon

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas has suffered a ruptured tendon in his left knee and is out for the remainder of the season

MAY 3, 2025 • Associated Press

Fills in at first base Gonzalez entered for an injured Triston Casas (knee) and went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 6-1 win over Minnesota.

Impact Casas sustained what Red Sox manager Alex Cora described as a "significant knee injury," per Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com. The Red Sox have limited organizational depth at first base, so it looks like Gonzalez, who was a platoon partner at the position with Casas, will be the immediate fill in. Gonzalez is batting .279/.340/.419 with six doubles, two steals, five RBI and nine runs scored over 43 at-bats.
