The Boston Red Sox have had quite a bit of turnover at first base this season. The club expected Triston Casas to be its everyday starter, but a ruptured patellar tendon ended his season prematurely, and possibly delayed his next one.
Romy Gonzalez and Abraham Toro have been good-to-great replacements in the lineup, but neither is a full-time first baseman, nor do they offer a long-term solution at the corner. After the Red Sox entered the All-Star break on a 10-game winning streak, they firmly established themselves as buyers, and a first baseman could be on their radar.
