Gasper started Boston's final regular-season series against the Chicago Cubs on Sept. 25 at catcher but was replaced in the sixth inning after experiencing discomfort in his biceps.
He was placed on the injured list and was not on the Red Sox's roster for their AL Wild Card Series loss to the New York Yankees.
The 30-year-old New Hampshire native played a career-high 67 games in his third major league season, batting .251 with 10 home runs and 24 RBIs.
