It’s ok, big boy sits for left handed pitchers

I hope and expect for this to change

Extremely satisfying single there

My large meathead son

Has he quite possibly spliced a load of quotes from different properties and attributed them to a fourth? I believe he has!

Literally rookie errors from our boy; learning curve! However that first home run of the season was pretty great. And it seems like his bat has started to wake up?

Hahahaha

Quite an at bat for Triston Casas, who fouls off eight pitches and draws a 14-pitch walk. Flips the bat at the end, which, honestly, he kind of earned.

I love this fucking moron

was not expecting the scream there

There’s a great clip where they cut to the dugout and Cora is laughing, like, what an absolute freak but can’t hate

The lhp threw four straight balls to Bobby Dalbec and ended up having to come out right after, love a good ab duel like that

Triston struck out 4 times today ;_;

If he can't learn to handle breaking stuff or offspeed stuff when it's down and in his MLB career is going to be very cruelly foreshortened imo

I think that’s premature.

Well that’s the book on him and it’s working like a dream so far. This is his challenge. He either figures it out or hangs it up. He’s got a good enough eye that I think he does figure it out, but he needs to do it either 1) quickly or 2) in Worcester

BA still dire and still a pretty small sample size but there’s a lot of good signs - walking a lot more and has also had some bad luck with strike calls & catches. This walkless streak has now ended so his on base numbers are going up and he just has to get the hitting squared off.

Intrigued by this thread also

Over the last 2 weeks Casas has a 24% walk rate and these are his batted balls. Enough to drive someone crazy, but as long as he sticks with his process, he's going to be fine. pic.twitter.com/Ool9IYPKDl

Such quick hands. Crazy.

0-3 with a walk getting to be a very familiar stat line for our young himbo. I feel for him. He looks miserable!

Yeah you read that piece in the Athletic? It’s just pretty joyless grinding atm but they say they’ve seen enough to bench him if needed cos they want him to tackle major league pitching. I think he has enough confidence to work through this slump but it’s tough to watch.

Btw I saw a clip of him making a pick from short and he was almost doing the splits to do so 😵‍💫

lmao his face at the end in the replay. I hope the boys are looking after him

btw I love Kiké as you know but honestly he is all over the place with his fucking throws???? He made one soon after this that was into the lights, went about a mile over Casas.

Yeah it's like he's got the yips. For every one of those diving stops he gives away a couple on bad throws

Casas a very natural fielder imo, always feel good when he's out there

I think based on his PAs I’ve seen he’s getting closer to where he needs to be. He seems to make a lot of hard contact but it gets caught a lot - probably mechanical as much as deciding to swing. Have seen people say he always takes a while to adjust every time they come up a level and the team is clearly pressing him to work it out - can be rough to watch. As I mentioned upthread, he’s got a lot of confidence and young players need that to keep pushing themselves on. Plus also it seems like some of his problems are classic overthinking at the plate? Idk, I hope he starts doing better soon for his own sake, your fans seem kind of awful. Also for our sake so he can start using his Twitter account again ofc

Casas' bases loaded warning track fly out is a homer 87% of the time, with a .917 batting average. pic.twitter.com/dgT6ZpqsIt

The only king I care about is king of the himbos Triston Casas. 4 hits in his last two games, hopefully he has turned a corner.

I asked Casas about this. He said he was using the injury on the field as his time to visualize some things in the batter's box. With the pitch clock, he noted, you don't have time to do that.

He's the gift that keeps on giving. https://t.co/xsa4TawOfN

Which weirdos played for boston before spaceman lee? B”s”L->manny b manny->TC is a good lineage

Ted would talk to his bats i guess

oil can imo

RIGHT

Carl Everett could be squeezed in there somewhere imho

Tru

I can’t speak to Red Sox weirdos but i think they haven’t had a himbo proper since Gabe Kapler. The himbo/weirdo hybrid is rare!

I don’t think the other voice in the box was posted here

Casas on him hitting in the box and the little voice in his head: "That alter ego comes out in that box, there’s a little switch you have to flip, so that’s who I talk to. It’s very demanding, it’s very harsh."

links no worky

let me at that casas content

I messaged to you on sapp, imgur doesn’t work on my phone v well sorry

He’s the best 🥹🥹🥹 though apparently ESPN asked him “What does Mother’s Day mean to you?” (as his mother died as a child), what the fuck.

BA continues to climb, slash line is .345/.444/.586 with an OPS of 1.031 for May. He got hits in the last three games, on base streak is 23(?) games?

Wow that question about his mother is fucked up, he handled that well though.

Also, in The Athletic:

• Triston Casas has slowly started to turn a corner at the plate, going 10-for-29 (.345) with two homers and a double in 10 games this month. On Sunday, Casas extended his on-base streak to 23 games, the third-longest active streak in the majors behind Yordan Alvarez (34) and Jurickson Profar (25). While the walks he’s drawn have been good, the Red Sox are glad he’s being more aggressive at swinging at pitches in the zone. The Red Sox felt Casas was too patient and was wasting hittable pitches in an attempt to draw a walk. “I’d rather him not work the count to walk,” Cora said. “They walk you, they walk you. If you’re ahead in the count and you get pitches to hit, let it fly.” Cora added a little humor by referencing another comment made to the gigantic, slow-footed Casas, “Somebody said something like, ‘If you walk, what are you gonna do? Steal second?’”

roasted

cannot believe he just runs his mouth throughout at-bats

"there's a certain amount of energy that the earth emits that you can absorb from the sun"

incredible answer to a completely jarring question in the middle of an at-bat

"pablito!!"

he loves trees

Yeah I appreciate he calls to the guys in Spanish, that’s got to be such an asset in a clubhouse.

“Hopefully my balls start flying a little more.”

xp the best

“You seem comfortable in your skin and we’ve seen a lot of your skin…” thirsty comment to a 23 year old rookie

I love that they showed his tweets onscreen, this thread was ahead of its time

Lmao. I saw people talking about this. I hate Bill James as you know. The trade talk is so stupid but the Red Sox are stupid, so. Incident of “heartbreaking, the worst person you know”
