Triston Casas
Despite rumors swirling around a potential trade for a Seattle arm like Luis Castillo, Triston Casas remains the starting first basemen for the foreseeable future. Casas, who commands the plate with his size en eye, saw his season limited to just 63 games in 2024 due to a persistent rib injury, but he has consistently been in the upper tenth percentile at knowing how to work a walk in the Major Leagues, even if he also has the propensity to strike out a good amount too. He may have led the team in home runs had he played anywhere near a full 162 games, tallying 13 long balls in his abbreviated campaign, and he’s steadily improving defensively since his debut in 2022.
