Kristian Campbell’s much awaited debut at first base had been scheduled for Sunday. It was pushed back by the play of Abraham Toro. Now, it appears to have been postponed indefinitely. On Monday, the Red Sox activated Romy Gonzalez (left quad contusion) from the injured list and put him at first base against Angels lefty Tyler Anderson while having Toro — a switch-hitter — play third base, with rookie Marcelo Mayer getting the night off.

MILWAUKEE — The Rafael Devers position question won’t go away. Last weekend, after Alex Bregman suffered a significant quadriceps strain, Red Sox manager Alex Cora revealed Devers — who’d routinely taken pregame grounders at third in April — hasn’t done so at any point this month.

Outside and inside the Red Sox organization, the clamor for Anthony to get called up is getting louder.

MILWAUKEE — When the Red Sox acquired Garrett Crochet, it seemed fair to wonder whether the team would need to manage his workload this year in deference to the fact that the White Sox limited him to 146⅓ innings in 2024. Two months into the season, however, Crochet has obliterated any skepticism. The lefthander, who is 4-4 with a 2.04 ERA, entered Tuesday as the big league leader with 75 innings pitched and on a pace to cruise past 200 frames.
