Boston Red Sox first base prospect Triston Casas continued to hit in Tuesday's 10-2 Grapefruit League win over the Braves. The 23-year-old went 2-for-3 with a single, a double, an RBI, a walk and a strikeout. He is now batting .444 with two home runs in 18 spring at-bats. Casas is Boston's top-ranked prospect and enters the 2023 season poised to be their everyday first baseman. He only slashed .197/.358/.408 in his first 95 plate appearances with the Red Sox last season, but he slashed an impressive .273/.382/.481 with 11 home runs and 38 RBI in 317 plate appearances with Triple-A Worcester. Casas remains a top fantasy name in dynasty leagues and also could prove to be a useful pick this season in mixed leagues if he can tap into his power potential.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas went 2-for-3 with a home run, three RBI, a run scored and a strikeout in Tuesday's Grapefruit League win over the Miami Marlins. The most notable was the fact that all of his damage came against left-handed pitching in this spring game. The 23-year-old enters the 2023 season as Boston's top-ranked prospect, and he should be their everyday first baseman. The 6-foot-4, 252-pounder hit just .197/.358/.408 with a .766 OPS, five home runs and 12 RBI in his first 27 major-league games in 2022, but he has the potential to be the American League's Rookie of the Year this season if he plays up to his potential. Casas has plenty of raw power to all fields.

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas is viewed by the organization as a big piece of what Boston hopes is their next evolution, as he's currently Baseball America's No. 29-ranked prospect in the sport. Casas hit just .197 in his first 27 major-league games in 2022, but it's clear that the Red Sox want him to be part of their future. According to Casas, he hasn't had any extension talks with the team, but he wouldn't mind approaching that subject. General manager Chaim Bloom isn't a stranger to early extensions from his days in the Tampa Bay Rays organization. The 23-year-old youngster is in line to be the team's regular first baseman in 2023 after Boston parted ways with Eric Hosmer this offseason.

The Miami Marlins have discussed a potential trade with the Boston Red Sox involving first baseman Triston Casas, per the Miami Herald's Craig Mish and Barry Jackson. Per Mish and Jackson, the Marlins are willing to move one starting pitcher this offseason in order to bolster their lineup. However, the Red Sox have so far rejected all offers. Casas is one of baseball's top prospects and boasts elite power potential. The 22-year-old slashed .273/.382/.481 with 11 home runs and 38 RBI in 317 plate appearances in 2022 with Triple-A Worcester and .197/.358/.408 with five HR and 12 RBI in 95 plate appearances with the Red Sox.

Casas made his debut with Boston last year and hit .197/.358/.408 with five home runs, 12 RBI, 11 runs scored and a stolen base in only 95 plate appearances over 27 games played. The 22-year-old suffered a knee injury while playing winter ball, but he's fully expected to be ready for spring training and the start of the regular season. MLB Pipeline has Casas ranked as Boston's No. 2 prospect, behind only shortstop Marcelo Mayer. In 72 games at Triple-A Worcester in 2022, Casas slashed .273/.382/.481 with an .863 OPS, 11 home runs, 38 RBI and 45 runs scored in 317 plate appearances.
