Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Sitting Sunday
Gonzalez is absent from Sunday's lineup against Tampa Bay, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
Enmanuel Valdez will start at third base and bat ninth in the Red Sox's regular-season finale. Unless he comes in to pinch hit, Gonzalez will end his first season with the Red Sox having slashed .266/.306/.417 with 11 stolen bases, six home runs and 29 RBI across 216 plate appearances.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Riding pine Monday
Gonzalez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
After Rafael Devers suffered a right shoulder injury Friday before landing on the injured list a day later, Gonzalez picked up each of the ensuing three starts at third base, going 3-for-10 with a home run, a stolen base and five RBI across those contests. Though he'll give way to Nick Sogard at the hot corner Monday, Gonzalez still looks to be the Red Sox's preferred option at the position entering the final week of the season.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Gets first chance at third base job
Gonzalez is batting second and playing third base Saturday against Minnesota, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
Gonzalez took over for Rafael Devers at third base late in Friday's game after Devers left with a shoulder injury. Manager Alex Cora said after Friday's contest that the Red Sox will likely shut Devers down, which opens up playing time for Gonzalez and Nick Sogard at third base to close the season. It'll be Gonzalez getting the first stab at the hot corner Saturday.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Moves to third base mid-game
Gonzalez entered Friday's game as a pinch runner and remained in the 4-2 extra-innings loss to the Twins. He was hitless in his lone plate appearance.
Gonzalez initially played second base but eventually moved to third in the 11th inning, when Rafael Devers (shoulder) was removed from the game. Devers will undergo an MRI on Saturday and faces of the prospect of his season being over. That would create an opening at third base, where Gonzalez and Nick Sogard would likely fill in.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Wreaks havoc on basepaths
Gonzalez went 3-for-4 with a double, one RBI, three stolen bases and two runs scored in Saturday's 7-5 win over the White Sox.
Gonzalez had not logged a steal since July 26, making him an unlikely candidate to swipe three bags in a game. Even with his show of speed Saturday, he's at 10 steals this season. The utility man has added a .285/.333/.437 slash line with four home runs, 23 RBI, 19 runs scored and 10 doubles over 174 plate appearances. He hasn't been strictly limited to a short-side platoon role, but the return of Trevor Story (shoulder) may make it tougher for Gonzalez to pick up at-bats versus righties.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Blasts three-run homer
Gonzalez went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 8-4 loss to the Royals.
Gonzalez's blast put the Red Sox ahead 3-2 in the third inning. The backup infielder has gone 4-for-11 with three homers and seven RBI over his last five contests, but that's a span that dates back to July 29. For the season, he's at a .284/.336/.477 slash line with four homers, 17 RBI, 13 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 120 plate appearances. Gonzalez is likely to remain as a right-handed-hitting platoon option at a number of positions, primarily second base.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Homers as pinch hitter
Gonzalez went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run against the Royals in Monday's 9-5 victory.
Gonzalez entered the contest in the seventh inning as a pinch hitter for Dominic Smith and promptly smashed a 452-foot, two-run homer to center field. It was his second long ball in his past four contests after he had gone deep just once over his first 98 at-bats this season. Gonzalez's overall slash line of .283/.336/.453 is pretty solid, but he doesn't see the field often enough to be a viable fantasy asset in most formats -- he plays almost exclusively against left-handed pitchers and has started just once over Boston's past seven contests.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Homers in blowout win
Gonzalez entered Monday's game as a pinch hitter and went 1-for-1 with a walk, a home run and two RBI in a 14-7 win over Seattle.
The Red Sox were cruising in the middle innings when manager Alex Cora decided to give Rafael Devers a break, sending up Gonzalez to hit. The pinch hitter belted a two-run home run and then finished off the game at third base. Gonzalez has hit well since the All-Star break, going 10-for-29 (.345) with five extra-base hits, two steals and five runs scored. He's typically in the lineup against left-handers, getting starts at first base or moving about the infield.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Notches sixth steal
Gonzalez went 2-for-5 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 6-0 win over the Rockies.
Gonzalez has hit safely in four of five games since the All-Star break, and this was his second multi-hit effort in a row. The infielder also picked up his sixth steal on his eighth attempt of the year. He's at a .273/.323/.398 slash line with one home run, 10 RBI, eight runs scored, six doubles and a triple over 96 plate appearances. He's enjoyed a boost of playing time with the Red Sox facing four consecutive left-handed starters, but Gonzalez figures to cede his spot at first base to Dominic Smith against right-hander Cal Quantrill in Wednesday's series finale.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Contributes to win
Gonzalez started at first base and went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 extra-inning win over the Yankees.
Gonzalez's fifth-inning homer was all the offense Boston mustered over the first eight innings before its late-game comeback. The utility infielder has mostly worked as a pinch hitter and fill-in at all four infield positions. Gonzalez is 9-for-26 (.346) with three steals, two doubles, a home run, four RBI and three additional runs over 14 games since being activated off the injured list in mid-June.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Knocks in two as PH
Gonzalez entered as a pinch hitter and delivered a two-run single in the eighth inning of Monday's 7-6 win over the Blue Jays.
Gonzalez was part of a four-run uprising in the eighth that set up Boston's walk-off win. After he was sent up to pinch hit for Dominic Smith against a lefty, Toronto countered with a righty reliever, and Gonzalez delivered a clutch two-out, two-run single to tie the game. He took over at first base for the final frame. Gonzalez has served in the short side of a platoon at second base since being activated off the injured list a little more than a week ago. He's also filled in at multiple positions whenever needed.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Activated, included in lineup
The Red Sox activated Gonzalez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Monday.
Gonzalez has missed most of June with a hamstring issue but was cleared to rejoin the Red Sox following a brief rehab assignment. He'll check back into the starting nine at second base and as the No. 6 hitter in Monday's series opener as the Blue Jays send lefty Yusei Kikuchi to the mound. Gonzalez is expected to fill the short side of a platoon at the keystone with Enmanuel Valdez.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Likely to be activated this week
Gonzalez (hamstring) will travel with the Red Sox to Toronto for their upcoming three-game series with the Blue Jays and is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list Monday or Tuesday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Gonzalez completed his rehab assignment Sunday with Triple-A Worcester with a four-hit performance, and he went 6-for-10 overall while playing three of the past four days. Once activated, Gonzalez will likely supplant Jamie Westbrook as the short-side platoon mate for the lefty-hitting Enmanuel Valdez at second base.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Rehab assignment starting Thursday
Gonzalez (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
The date of Gonzalez's first rehab game ended up being pushed back a couple days, but he's ready for game action now. Gonzalez has been out since early June with a left hamstring strain and should only need a few games in the minors before being cleared to return from the 10-day injured list.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Rehab stint pushed back
Gonzalez (hamstring) won't start his rehab assignment Tuesday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Gonzalez was scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday at Triple-A Worcester, but he's still in Boston as the Red Sox start a three-game homestand against the Phillies on Tuesday night. At this point, it's unclear when Gonzalez will head to Worcester, but he'll likely require a brief minor-league stint as part of his rehab from a strained left hamstring.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Rehab assignment on tap
Gonzalez (hamstring) is set to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.
Boston's unsettled second base position offers a path to regular playing time for Gonzalez once he's activated. The right-handed hitter should be part of a rotation along with Enmanuel Valdez while Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) remains on the injured list. Even when Grissom returns, Gonzalez could still figure into the mix.

Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Tracking toward brief IL stint
Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Sunday that he's hopeful Gonzalez (hamstring) will be ready to return from the 10-day injured list around when he's first eligible to be activated, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
Gonzalez was joined on the IL on Sunday by fellow infielder Vaughn Grissom, who is recovering from a right hamstring strain. Grissom's injury is believed to be the more significant of the two, as he'll be sent in for an MRI, whereas Gonzalez won't be subject to any further imaging. Assuming the tightness in his left leg subsides in the coming days and he's able to resume baseball activities, Gonzalez could be ready to return from the IL for the Red Sox's three-game series with the Phillies that begins June 11. In the meantime, the Red Sox are likely to lean on Enmanuel Valdez and Jamie Westbrook as the main options at second base, with the former occupying the strong side of a platoon.
