Holt started at second base and went 1-for-4 in Saturday's 8-7 loss to Toronto.
Holt has started five straight games and seven of the last eight at second base, all against right-handed starters. The one time he sat was against a left-hander, but there is not a strict platoon at the position. Holt appears to be the primary starter at second for the short term. When Boston welcomes back injured first basemen Mitch Moreland (quadriceps) and Steve Pearce (back), Michael Chavis could shift to the keystone to become the everyday starter.
