Triston Casas Eyes Healthy Return In 2025
3 days agoTriston Casas is looking for a return to full health in 2025 for the Boston Red Sox. Casas missed significant time in 2024 with a serious and painful rib injury. He returned in mid-August after missing almost three months with the injury and ended the season with 243 plate appearances. Casas hit .241 with 13 home runs, 32 RBI, 28 runs, and zero stolen bases. Big things were expected in 2024 from Casas after hitting .263 with 24 home runs in 502 plate appearances in 2023. Casas strikes out at a high clip, 31.7% in 2024, but he also walks often, with a 12.3%BB%. If the skills coalesce and health is there, Casas could easily hit 30-35 home runs with a full season of plate appearances. His current ADP is 107, which puts him in the early eighth round of snake league drafts, just outside the top 10 first basemen. If you are willing to accept some risk, Casas could pay off in 2025.
