Boston Red key player is suspended from all sports for placing a bet against d…..
The Boston Red Sox last week gave an unfortunate update about Triston Casas’ rib injury recovery progress. On July 19, Red Sox manager Alex Cora shared that Casas was “far” from a rehab assignment.
But early in the week of July 21, Cora reported that the first baseman “[turned] a corner,” and could be on his way back to action soon. Boston’s chief baseball officer Craig Breslow confirmed the positive shift on WEEI’s “The Greg Hill Show” on July 25.
“He’s made quite a bit of progress over the last week or so, where he’s taking swings at full intensity and taking full batting practice,” Breslow said. “So, I think he could find himself in rehab games pretty quickly, as quickly as potentially even the end of this week, which is a great turnaround from where we were at the timeline we were talking about a few weeks ago.”
The dramatic change in Casas’ progression is the most positive update the Sox have given on his rehab, but Breslow made sure to keep fans’ expectations realistic. He said there are some lingering “feelings and tolerance” the first baseman still needs to work through before he can get back to big league action.
