Triston Casas Fantasy Stats

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) has stated that he will not participate in any Grapefruit League action. The 6-foot-4 slugger had previously indicated that he'd hoped to get some games in before the regular season begins, but this appears to push back his timeline somewhat. The former first-round draft pick is working his way back from patellar tendon surgery on his left knee, but has yet to work on baserunning and sliding as part of the rehab process. Once the left-handed hitter is ready to return to the Red Sox lineup, his powerful bat should have some fantasy appeal, having belted 24 home runs back in 2023 when he logged 132 games, so it's worth keeping an eye on his progress.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) is holding out hope that he'll be ready to play by Opening Day in late March, according to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com. "I still have a couple benchmarks like sliding and running bases that I haven't tackled yet that I want to feel perfectly comfortable going into a game having done multiple times and recovered from, and then over the weeks felt like I've developed that skill again. But my health right now is in a really good place compared to where it's been in the past," Casas said. A torn patellar tendon limited Casas to 29 games in 2025, and he's likely to either begin this season on the injured list or at Triple-A Worcester as he works his way back to 100%. And when the 26-year-old left-handed slugger is ready, he won't be the primary first baseman after Boston acquired Willson Contreras in a trade this offseason. Casas' fantasy baseball stock has dropped considerably.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) will do drills independently when the team holds its first full-squad spring training workout on Sunday, according to Ian Browne of MLB.com. Casas has some catching up to do after tearing his left patellar tendon on May 2 of last year. Offseason acquisition Willson Contreras has taken his primary position (first base), but Casas thinks the BoSox will find a place for him when he's fully healthy. "When I'm healthy, I fit on any team," said Casas. Browne writes that designated hitter could be a "nice fallback" for Casas once he's 100% healthy. However, Boston could need the DH spot to deploy whichever player can't fit in the outfield on a given day. Casas said that medical professionals told him his injury typically takes a year of full recovery, which would put him on track to play again around May 1. The Red Sox's lineup lacks power, so they could use Casas' bat in their lineup, but the 26-year-old might not be ready for Opening Day, and he might not have a full-time role when he makes his season debut.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) said that being ready for Opening Day will be a "tight squeeze," according to Tim Healey of the Boston Globe. He hopes to ease his way back into action by playing in some games during spring training. Casas is recovering from a ruptured left patellar tendon, and doctors gave him a 12-month recovery timeline that would put his projected return in early May. He had slashed .182/.277/.303 with three home runs and 56 wRC+ through 29 games before suffering his season-ending injury. Boston would definitely like to get its left-handed slugger back, but the organization presumably feels a little less urgency after acquiring Willson Contreras from the St. Louis Cardinals. Regardless of Casas' health, Contreras should start at first base when the Red Sox open their season in Cincinnati on March 26.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) has resumed baseball activities and is optimistic about playing in Spring Training. Casas is working his way back from a serious knee injury that limited him to 29 games. It seems that Casas is heading in the right direction, but might not be ready for Opening Day. The 26-year-old is likely going to be limited to designated hitter duties with Willson Contreras joining the club this offseason. The Red Sox have enough organizational depth that they could potentially send Casas to the minors until he's ready to contribute again. Casas has only played one full season since making his MLB debut in 2022. There's decent upside here, but Casas is looking more like a late-round option.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) continues to make steady progress as he recovers from a ruptured patellar tendon in his left knee that ended his season early. The 25-year-old remains on schedule in his rehab and expects to be ready for spring training. There had been speculation about whether Casas would be available for Opening Day, but recent updates suggest optimism from both the player and the team. Before the injury, Casas slashed .182/.277/.303 in 29 games. The Red Sox hope to have their promising young first baseman healthy to anchor the lineup in 2026.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) is moving around well (without crutches) in the team's clubhouse while wearing flip-flops on Friday, according to Ian Brown of MLB.com. Casas has already been ruled out for the remainder of the year after having surgery last month to fix a ruptured patellar tendon in his left knee. The 25-year-old will continue to rehab his knee for the rest of the year, and he expects to be ready for the start of the 2026 campaign. It's good to see Casas walking around on his own, but it's still way too early to tell for sure if he'll indeed be 100 percent good to go by Opening Day in 2026. Boston is moving forward as of now with Abraham Toro and Romy Gonzalez in a platoon at the cold corner. Casas still has intriguing power from the left side and is only 25, but he's played only one of four MLB seasons over 100 games and still needs to prove himself.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) has been diagnosed with a ruptured left patellar tendon. Casas was placed on the 10-day injured list earlier on Saturday but is expected to miss the remainder of the 2025 season. He was removed from Friday's contest and had to be taken off the field on a stretcher. For the time being, fantasy managers should expect Romy Gonzalez to see most of the opportunities at first base with Rafael Devers and Connor Wong also being in the mix. Casas had a slow start to the season, holding a .182/.277/.303 slash line with three doubles and three home runs across 29 games. Casas' injury could also eventually open a path for top prospects Roman Anthony or Marcelo Mayer to join the MLB roster as well.

Updating a previous report, Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that first baseman Triston Casas (knee) suffered a significant knee injury in Friday's series opener against the visiting Minnesota Twins at Fenway Park and is currently at the hospital. The skipper said the team will know more on Saturday, but it's a safe bet that Casas will be out for a while. It's not a surprise after the 25-year-old crumbled to the ground after landing awkwardly on first base while running out a groundout. Based on the way the injury looked, a torn ligament in his knee is a possibility, but we'll have a better idea of how long Casas might be sidelined on Saturday. With Casas likely out for an extended period of time, Romy Gonzalez, who replaced Casas at first on Friday, is in line to see regular playing time for the BoSox. In addition to this serious injury, Casas came into Friday's action hitting just .184/.279/.306 with three homers and 11 RBI.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) was removed early during Friday's game against the Detroit Tigers and was placed on a stretcher after a scary-looking injury. Casas appeared to have suffered a knee injury while trying to make it to first base. This looked like an ugly injury, and Casas couldn't even get off the field under his own power. The expectation is that the Red Sox will have Casas undergo further testing. However, fantasy managers should prepare for Casas to miss significant time because of this injury. Romy Gonzalez took over at first base and might see more time over there if Casas heads to the injured list, which seems likely based on how the injury looked on Friday night.
