The future is still bright for Triston Casas.
Even after being sidelined for most of the 2024 season due to injury, the 24-year-old first baseman still has the power and plate discipline to be a force in the heart of the Red Sox’ lineup for years to come.
But if the Red Sox are looking for ways to add pitching this offseason beyond just breaking the bank in free agency, Casas’ high ceiling might be spun into an appealing trade chip for Craig Breslow and Boston’s top brass.
Speaking on “Foul Territory” on Monday, longtime MLB insider Ken Rosenthal tossed out the Mariners as a team that might be interested in plucking Casas out of Boston, especially if it means a young starting pitcher going back to Seattle.
