The Red Sox began the 2025 season with high expectations due to key acquisitions and promising young talent. However, a mediocre 18-18 record and injuries, particularly Triston Casas's season-ending knee surgery, have dampened hopes. Casas was anticipated to be a vital contributor but struggled before his injury. With Casas out, the team lacks strong options at first base. Romy Gonzalez's hot start appears unsustainable while Abraham Toro has not performed well historically. Options within the minor leagues offer little reassurance as the team navigates early-season challenges in the AL East race.
"The Red Sox entered the 2025 season with big expectations... things have not gone quite as smoothly as fans in Boston were surely hoping."
"Without Casas locking down first base, the Red Sox don't have many obvious solutions they can rely on..."
