He missed most of the 2025 season as he ruptured the left patellar tendon in his knee. While it&#8217;s never good to have a &#8220;setback,&#8221; fortunately, it didn&#8217;t involve his knee. Casas has been dealing with sore ribs.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\">On Wednesday, Red Sox manager Alex Cora shared that it would be &#8220;a while&#8221; before Casas got back into the mix. But on Saturday he had a much more positive take. Cora shared that Casas actually will start his hitting progression on Monday, as shared by Christopher Smith of MassLive.com.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/upload\/c_crop,x_0,y_358,w_6129,h_3447\/c_fill,w_720,ar_16:9,f_auto,q_auto,g_auto\/images\/ImagnImages\/mmsport\/inside_the_red_sox\/01knd4qsd1ezgfs441hw.jpg\" alt=\"Red Sox Catch Huge Break With Triston Casas Update\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\">&#8220;First baseman Triston Casas will resume hitting Monday after being shut down for about a week, manager Alex Cora said Saturday&#8221; Smith wrote. &#8220;He\u2019ll begin by hitting off the tee. &#8216;Kind of like start his progression again,&#8217; Cora said. Casas began this season on the 10-day injured list, working his way back from surgery that he underwent in May 2025 to repair a ruptured left patellar tendon.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-4\"><strong>The Red Sox slugger got some good news<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure><figcaption>Apr 20, 2025; Boston, Massachusetts, USA; Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas (36) makes a catch for an out against the Chicago White Sox during the sixth inning at Fenway Park. Mandatory Credit: Eric Canha-Imagn Images | Eric Canha-Imagn Images<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/en\/baseball_now_articles_641\/1d9beeb9bd62c00f3b51b27ef5e1c5a5\" alt=\"Red Sox's Triston Casas Encounters Another Injury Setback - Yahoo Sports\" \/><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">&#8220;The Red Sox recently shut him down because of an intercostal strain, an unrelated injury. Intercostal muscles are located between the ribs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">After the update earlier in the week that Casas had a &#8220;setback,&#8221; you couldn&#8217;t have asked for a better update from Cora than what he gave on Saturday about the young slugger. Beginning a hitting progression on Monday doesn&#8217;t mean that he&#8217;s going to be in game action over the next week, but it&#8217;s a step in that direction.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\">One of the biggest talking points around Boston in the offseason and early on this season has been the fact that the offense hasn&#8217;t been firing on all cylinders. Casas is someone who can help this team at some point, despite the fact that his role with the team isn&#8217;t clear. Regardless of position, he has the type of power Boston needs. Any time you hear about an injury setback it&#8217;s scary, especially when the manager says a guy is going to be down for &#8220;a while.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/en\/boston_red_sox_on_si_articles_102\/b8d24c7679c9db58b544456f8a001877\" alt=\"Triston Casas' Red Sox Comeback Bid Just Took an Important Turn - Yahoo  Sports\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\">Fortunately, things aren&#8217;t as bad as initially expected and now Casas will return to his rehab and continue working his way back up for Boston. It&#8217;s been a tough few years for the young first baseman, but it was a good day on Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Boston Red Sox shared some good news on Saturday afternoon.
