Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas made the jump from the minor leagues to the majors during the 2022 season, and his unconventional pregame routine bothered some of Boston's veteran players, per Chris Cotillo of MassLive.
Casas, who made his Red Sox debut in September, would sunbathe shirtless in Fenway Park's right field as part of a pregame routine he started in 2019 while still in the minors, according to Cotillo. The first baseman's routine also included taking naps in the clubhouse.
Veteran players "took issue" with Casas' routine and "voiced their displeasure" with it on several occasions, per Cotillo.
