Romy Gonzalez, Boston Red Sox, Out With Left Quad Contusion, on 10-Day Injured Reserve

Romy Gonzalez's absence from the lineup means that Abraham Toro and Nick Sogard may see more time at first base. Toro has played in the position before, but his current batting average is .192. Sogard, another option, has a batting average of .240.

Gonzalez has been consistent at home with a batting average of .378. His absence will be felt, especially in the upcoming home game against the New York Mets. In 17 games this season, Gonzalez has hit .308, with six doubles and three stolen bases.
