Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow said Wednesday that Casas (shoulder) is close to starting a hitting program, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
Analysis: Casas missed the final few weeks of the 2023 regular season because of inflammation in his right shoulder, but he is basically back to full strength here in early November. When healthy this year, the young first baseman put up a strong .856 OPS with 24 home runs and 65 RBI over 132 games.
Triston Casas Likely done for season
Casas (shoulder) is unlikely to play again this season, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
Analysis: Casas is still undergoing tests on his injured right shoulder, but with the Red Sox out of the playoff hunt there is no reason to rush him back, and thus it appears his stellar sophomore campaign will come to an early end.
