Red Sox’s Triston Casas: Scratched with tooth infection

Casas was scratched from the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Yankees with an infected tooth, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

The Red Sox have yet to announce a timeline for Casas’ return, but if it’s an issue that can be fixed with routine dental work, he’s likely not looking at a long absence. Justin Turner will shift from designated hitter to first base in Casas’ absence, with Adam Duvall entering the lineup as the DH.
