Casas went 1-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Saturday's 4-3 extra-inning win over the White Sox.
Casas delivered the game-winning run in the 10th inning with a bases-loaded single. While it's way too early to claim the walk-off hit has ended Casas' early-season swoon -- he entered Saturday hitting .172 with a .508 OPS -- it was a big hit for the first baseman, who was batting .125 (2-for-16) with runners in scoring position prior to Saturday's knock.

Red Sox's Triston Casas: Sitting against lefty
Rotowire
Casas is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
The 25-year-old will take a seat against Chicago lefty Martin Perez, as the first baseman has yet to receive a start against a southpaw this season. Casas has struggled to a .172/.243/.266 slash line through 70 plate appearances this year, and he's unlikely to break out of the platoon without first coming alive versus righties. Romy Gonzalez will receive another start at first base for Boston.

Red Sox's Triston Casas: Dropped in order
Rotowire
Casas batted sixth and went 1-for-3 with a walk in Sunday's 3-1 win over the White Sox.
Red Sox manager Alex Cora trotted out a reconfigured batting order Sunday, dropping Casas, who had batted cleanup behind Alex Bregman in all 12 of his starts, to sixth. The hot-hitting Wilyer Abreu was promoted to cleanup. "Willy is swinging the bat well," Cora told Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com. "Triston put some good swings two nights ago but I felt like today was a good day to have this configuration." Casas entered Sunday's contest batting .176 (9-for-51) with a .530 OPS.

Red Sox's Triston Casas: Belts first homer
Rotowire
Casas went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Thursday's 8-4 win over the Orioles.
Like a few of his teammates, Casas has had a quiet start to the regular season, going 1-for-17 (.059) through his first five games. The first baseman had an encouraging finish to team's seven-game road trip though, with his two-run homer in the seventh inning giving the Red Sox breathing room en route to their first series win of the season. Casas was often given days off against left-handers last season, and he was on the bench for the lone southpaw the team has faced thus far in 2025. He'll look to build off Thursday's contributions in Boston's home opener Friday against St. Louis right-hander Erick Fedde.
Casas will not start Monday in Baltimore, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
The top four in Boston's order hit a combined .138 (9-for-65) during a season-opening series that saw the Red Sox lose three of four games in Texas. Casas, who was 1-for-16 with seven strikeouts, will get the day off against Baltimore lefty Cade Povich, the first southpaw starter the team will face this season.

Red Sox's Triston Casas: In lineup for opener
Rotowire
Casas (hand) will start at first base and bat cleanup in Thursday's season opener in Texas.
Casas took a ball off his bare hand in the field earlier this week, but X-rays were negative, and he'll be good to go for the start of the season. The first baseman was limited to only 63 games in 2024 due to injury but heads into the 2025 campaign with a clean bill of health.

Red Sox's Triston Casas: Expected to be fine for Opening Day
Rotowire
Casas (hand) is expected to be ready to play Thursday against the Rangers, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
X-rays were negative after Casas attempted to field a bad hop with his bare hand Monday. Manager Alex Cora noted after Tuesday's exhibition that Casas was sore but feeling "a lot better," while the decision to hold him out Tuesday was described as precautionary. With that, Casas appears to be in line to bat cleanup against right-hander Nathan Eovaldi on Opening Day, though fantasy managers may want to confirm his status before first pitch.
Casas is not in the Red Sox's lineup for Tuesday's exhibition game against Sultanes de Monterrey after taking a bad-hop grounder off the right hand in Monday's contest, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
Casas attempted to barehand the grounder, but the ball bounced off his hand and into right field. X-rays after the game came back negative, so Casas sitting Tuesday seems precautionary, but more should be known about his status after the contest.
Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Tuesday that Casas will be the everyday first baseman, including against left-handers, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports. "He will play. He's going to play against lefties and righties," Cora said. "We're not going to platoon at first base."
This appears to be the next step in the evolution for Casas, who sometimes sat against particularly tough lefties over his first two seasons. Casas was in the starting lineup the last two times Boston faced an ace left-hander this spring -- last Saturday against Chris Sale and Tuesday versus Max Fried. Casas had two hits off Sale, including a monster opposite-field home run, before Fried struck him out twice. The 25-year-old first baseman is batting .167 (12-for-30) with two home runs, four RBI, six walks and 13 strikeouts through 12 Cactus League games.
