Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Goes yard in extra-inning win
Monasterio went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a hit-by-pitch in Wednesday's 4-2 extra-inning win over the Athletics.
Monasterio provided the margin of victory when he went deep in the 10th inning. He saw a nine-game hitting streak end Tuesday, but he bounced back Wednesday with his fifth multi-hit effort over 17 contests in July. Monasterio is now batting .259 with a .779 OPS, six homers, 20 RBI, 23 runs scored, 17 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 204 plate appearances this season. As long as Boston's middle infield is plagued by injuries, Monasterio should continue to have a clear path to playing time at shortstop.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Settling in at shortstop
Monasterio went 1-for-3 with a walk and a double in Monday's 4-2 win over the Athletics.
Monasterio started a fifth consecutive game at shortstop and extended a hit streak to nine contests, during which he's 12-for-26 (.462) with six walks, six doubles, one triple, one home run, five RBI and five runs scored. Even before the Red Sox optioned Tsung-Che Cheng back to the minors over the weekend, Monasterio had taken hold of the shortstop spot. It should be his until Trevor Story (sports hernia) is ready to return at some point in August.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Drawing fourth straight start
Monasterio will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.
Monasterio will head into Sunday's contest riding a seven-game hitting streak, during which he's gone 10-for-20 with seven extra-base hits to bring his season-long slash line up to .250/.301/.442. He'll be making his fourth straight start and appears to have supplanted Tsung-Che Cheng as the preferred option at shortstop, but Monasterio likely won't have a long leash as an everyday player. Boston is expected to get Trevor Story (sports hernia) back from the injured list at some point in August, and everyday third baseman Caleb Durbin will begin getting pregame work at shortstop as well in an effort to increase his versatility.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Sitting after big weekend
Monasterio is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.
Monasterio will be back on the bench after he made two straight starts against left-handed pitchers to close out the Red Sox's weekend series with the Rays, going 3-for-6 with three doubles, two walks, two runs and one RBI between those contests. Tsung-Che Cheng will cover shortstop Monday and still appears to have a hold on the strong side of platoon at the position.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Slaps fourth homer in win
Monasterio went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 8-1 win over the White Sox.
Monasterio opened the scoring in the second inning by taking Noah Schultz deep for his fourth home run of the season. Following a single in the sixth, he swiped his second stolen base of the year. After a 1-for-15 slump to end June, the infielder has collected a hit in each of his four July games. Across 54 games this season, Monasterio is batting .228 with a .659 OPS.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Stuck in bench role
Monasterio is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.
Though Marcelo Mayer (forearm) recently joined fellow infielders Trevor Story (sports hernia), Nick Sogard (oblique) and Isiah Kiner-Falefa (forearm) on the injured list, Monasterio hasn't been able to gain a foothold in the Boston lineup. Monasterio will remain on the bench for the fifth game in a row while the Red Sox go with Anthony Seigler and Tsung-Che Cheng as their starters in the middle infield.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Gets another start at shortstop
Monasterio started at shortstop and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 8-6 loss to the Rockies.
Monasterio made a second consecutive start at shortstop with Marcelo Mayer (foot) opening the game on the bench. The homer was the third of the season for Monasterio, who entered Wednesday's contest batting just .087 (2-for-23) over his last 11 games. Mayer eventually entered the game for an injured Caleb Durbin (finger) and took over at shortstop while Monasterio covered second base.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Steps in at shortstop
Monasterio started at shortstop and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rockies.
Monasterio got the start at shortstop with Marcelo Mayer nursing a sore foot after fouling a ball off it the previous night. As the Red Sox were facing a left-hander, Colorado's Sean Sullivan, it's likely Mayer would have been held out regardless of the injury. Playing time has been sporadic for Monasterio, who's made just 28 starts and is slashing .223/.271/.355 with two home runs, 11 RBI, one steal and 12 runs scored across 45 total appearances.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Idle for second straight game
Monasterio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.
Monasterio will be on the bench for a second straight game while the Red Sox give Anthony Seigler another turn at second base. Boston went with Monasterio at the keystone in each of the three games before that, with the 29-year-old going 2-for-10 with four strikeouts in those contests. Monasterio and Seigler could work in a timeshare at the position while the Red Sox are without all of Trevor Story (sports hernia), Romy Gonzalez (shoulder/hip), Nick Sogard (oblique) and Isiah Kiner-Falefa (forearm).

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Sitting against righty again
Monasterio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
Monasterio will hit the bench for the third time in four games, with each of his absences coming while Boston has faced right-handed starting pitchers. Though Monasterio appeared to have temporarily taken over as the preferred shortstop when Trevor Story (sports hernia) landed on the injured list last weekend, interim manager Chad Tracy recently said that Marcelo Mayer will become the primary option at the position. Monasterio will vie with Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Nick Sogard for playing time at second base while Mayer is occupying shortstop.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Heading to bench Wednesday
Monasterio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Isiah Kiner-Falefa will get the nod at shortstop Wednesday, but Monasterio looks to be the Red Sox's preferred option at the position while Trevor Story (sports hernia) is stuck on the injured list. Prior to Wednesday, Monasterio had started each of the last six games -- four at shortstop, two at designated hitter -- and went 6-for-22 with three doubles and a run during that stretch.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Makes fourth straight start
Monasterio started at shortstop and went 2-for-4 in Monday's 3-1 win over Kansas City.
Monasterio made a fourth consecutive start at shortstop as a fill-in for Trevor Story (groin), who could be facing surgery. The Red Sox have a few options to deploy at shortstop, but thus far interim manager Chad Tracy has only used Monasterio. He's slashing .256/.301/.397 with eight doubles, one home run, nine RBI and eight runs scored over 83 plate appearances.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Slides in at shortstop
Monasterio started at shortstop and went 1-for-4 in Sunday's 8-1 loss to Atlanta.
Monasterio has made two consecutive starts at shortstop, as Trevor Story (groin) was added to the injured list and could face surgery. It's unclear if Monasterio will become the everyday fill-in at shortstop, but interim manager Chad Tracy put him in the starting lineup against right-handers Saturday and Sunday. Other than Monasterio, the Red Sox have a host of options on the 26-man roster that can play shortstop, including Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Nick Sogard and Marcelo Mayer.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Three XBH in Saturday's rout
Monasterio went 3-for-6 with two doubles, a home run, three runs scored and four RBI in Saturday's 17-1 win over the Orioles.
Batting fifth as the DH, Monasterio banged out extra-base hits against three different Baltimore hurlers, including a grand slam in the ninth inning off Keegan Akin. It was the first homer of the year for the 28-year-old infielder, and through his first 13 games with the Red Sox, Monasterio is slashing .243/.317/.432 with one steal, five runs and seven RBI.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Slots in at first base
Monasterio started at first base and went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 9-5 win over Minnesota.
Monasterio, who stepped in at first base Tuesday when Willson Contreras was removed due to a back issue, started there Wednesday. The three-hit day was the first multi-hit effort of the season for Monasterio, who entered the contest batting .143 (2-for-14) in limited playing time. The Red Sox are off Thursday, which gives Contreras downtime ahead of the four-game set with the Tigers begins Friday.

Red Sox's Andruw Monasterio: Enters as pinch hitter
Monasterio went 1-for-2 with a double in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Cincinnati.
Monasterio, who made his first appearance of the regular season, pinch hit for Marcelo Mayer in the seventh inning against a right-handed reliever and remained in the game at second base. The backup gave the Red Sox some hope in the ninth inning with a one-out double, but he was stranded there. With Mayer routinely hitting the bench against left-handers, Monasterio and Isiah Kiner-Falefa are positioned to be part of a platoon at second base.
