Triston Casas News
Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (shoulder) is unlikely to play again in 2023. He is still being checked by doctors, but regardless of the specifics regarding his right-shoulder injury, the Red Sox see no need to rush him back in a lost season. Although it was a disappointing year overall for the BoSox with another finish outside of the playoffs, it was a strong first full major-league season for Casas. The 23-year-old young left-handed hitter served as Boston's regular starting first baseman and finished with a .263/.367/.490 slash line, an .856 OPS, 24 home runs, 21 doubles, two triples, 65 RBI and 66 runs scored in 502 plate appearances over 132 games played. In 13 starts in September before being shut down, he went 13-for-49 (.265) with three homers, two doubles, 12 RBI and eight runs scored.
Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (shoulder) has been placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday, according to MLB.com. Bobby Dalbec was recalled in a corresponding move. The Rookie of the Year candidate missed Friday's contest and was scratched from Saturday's lineup with right shoulder soreness. Hours later, the club decided Casas would require an IL stint. The 23-year-old has been an important piece of the Red Sox offense, slashing .263/.367/490 with 24 bombs, 66 runs, and 65 RBI over 132 contests. Casas' timetable should be more clear in the coming days, but fantasy managers can expect to be without him for the rest of 2023.
Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (shoulder) was scratched from Saturday's starting lineup against the Toronto Blue Jays for the second straight day due to a sore shoulder. Justin Turner is now starting at first base and will bat third against Blue Jays right-hander Chris Bassitt. Masataka Yoshida is the designated hitter, Adam Duvall will start in left field and rookie Wilyer Abreu enters the lineup in center field. The 23-year-old Casas is considered day-to-day and should return to the lineup soon, possibly on Sunday for the series finale. In his first full big-league campaign, Casas has provided plenty of power for fantasy managers with 24 long balls and 65 RBI in his 429 at-bats for the BoSox as their regular first baseman.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (knee) made his MLB debut in 2022 and slashed .197/.358/.408 with five home runs, 12 RBI, 11 runs, and a stolen base across 27 games. The 23-year-old is in line to be Boston's primary first baseman, with Eric Hosmer signing with the Cubs after being designated for assignment by the Red Sox this offseason. Casas is Boston's top prospect and ranks 29th overall per Baseball America. He played only three games in winter ball before developing knee soreness in October. The young slugger underwent an MRI, which revealed no structural damage, and Casas will be ready by Spring Training. The former first-rounder also missed time last season due to an ankle injury. Casas has legit power, evidenced by his 40.2 Hard% and .481 slugging percentage in the minors. He has more value in leagues that use the category on-base percentage instead of batting average. ATC projections are on board with this assessment and are projecting Casas with a slash line of .242/.337/.423 with 17 home runs, 57 RBI, three steals, and a .337 wOBA over 121 games in 2023. If Casas can stay healthy, he could be a cheap source of power in the later rounds and is a solid pick at his current NFBC ADP of 238, selected 25th overall among first basemen in recent drafts.
