First base has been something of a mess for the Boston Red Sox this season. Triston Casas was the Opening Day answer at the cold corner, though he slashed .182/.277/.303 (56 wRC+) before going down with a season-ending knee injury.

Since, many players have been tasked with filling his shoes, namely Abraham Toro and Romy Gonzalez.
