One year after slamming 20 home runs at Single-A as a 19-year-old, Casas is opening eyes at the alternate training site in Pawtucket, where he has smashed three home runs against pitchers on the cusp of reaching the big leagues. What's really exciting, however, is what he does once he levels a bat. That means he's already roughly the size of Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen or Indians slugger Franmil Reyes, an imposing specimen who catches the eye before he even steps into the box.
Listed at 6-4, 238, he told a couple of reporters last winter that he had actually continued growing since being drafted 26th overall in 2018 while reaching 6-5, 255.
The 20-year-old with natural power from the left side is already a behemoth. 1 prospect - MLB.com prefers infielder Jeter Downs, for instance - but he's easily the most intriguing. Slugger Triston Casas might not be the team's consensus No. If you're a Red Sox fan seeking reasons for hope, one of them is hard to miss at 6-foot-5 and 255 pounds.
