Red Sox Place Triston Casas on Injured List, Call Up Abraham Toro

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas suffered a ruptured left patellar tendon and has been placed on the 10-day injured list, with the severity of the injury likely sidelining him for the remainder of the 2025 season. In response, the Red Sox called up infielder Abraham Toro from Triple-A Worcester, though Romy Gonzalez is expected to get most of the starts at first base for now. Toro, who has limited major league experience at first base, offers versatility in the infield but is not seen as a long-term solution. There is ongoing discussion about possible alternatives, including giving highly regarded prospect Marcelo Mayer reps at first base, though this remains speculative. The team faces the challenge of patching its roster rather than finding a permanent fix, as the front office opts for flexibility and depth during a season marked by attrition.
