Could be top option at 1B

Gonzalez will start at first base and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Abraham Toro is also in the lineup Sunday, filling in for a resting Alex Bregman at third base, but Gonzalez seems to have emerged as the Red Sox's preferred option at first base. Despite facing right-handed pitchers in each of the last three contests, Gonzalez got the start in all of them -- twice at first base and once at second -- while the switch-hitting Toro was included in the lineup just once. Since the start of August, Gonzalez has produced a .773 OPS, well ahead of Toro's .471 mark during that same period.
