Availability
Casas (knee) is recovering from patellar tendon surgery and his rehabilitation has progressed well. He said recently that he has not attempted running or sliding on the surgically repaired left knee.
Fantasy Impact
Casas believes he will be ready for Opening Day "for some affiliate" and has not ruled out the possibility of being with Boston. He still must clear several checkpoints before receiving game clearance. Willson Contreras is slated to play first base for the Red Sox.
Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas is taking ground balls at first base in camp as he recovers from a season-ending knee injury.
Fantasy Impact
Casas suffered his knee injury in May and remains behind the other position players in camp despite receiving positive reviews from skipper Alex Cora. The 26-year-old won't be the everyday first baseman after the club acquired Willson Contreras from the Cardinals this winter, but will be focused on getting healthy and getting back to form in 2026.
Triston Casas and the Boston Red Sox avoided arbitration by agreeing to a reported $1.61 million contract in 2026.
Fantasy Impact
Casas struggled last season with the Red Sox, batting just .182 with three home runs in 112 plate appearances before suffering a season-ending knee injury. Casas finished third in AL Rookie of the Year voting in 2023 after hitting .263 with 24 home runs. He's hoping to be ready for spring training, but the acquisition of Willson Contreras is a big hit to his path to playing time in Boston. He does have options remaining, so he could potentially start the season in Triple-A Worcester.
Triston Casas told reporters on Tuesday that his plan is to be ready for Opening Day next year.
Fantasy Impact
Casas spoke to reporters for the first time since undergoing season-ending surgery. He added that he will spend most of the summer and all offseason rehabbing in Fort Myers. He is hopeful to be off crutches in the next two weeks.
The Red Sox transferred Triston Casas to the 60-day IL.
Fantasy Impact
The move opened up a roster spot for Boston. Casas underwent knee surgery earlier in May.
