The Red Sox announced this morning that they had placed the first basic player Triston Casas On the 10 -day injured list with a broken left ball joint tendon. He suffered the injury in last night’s match. Baseball chief Craig Breslow Said that Casas will be operated on and that they do not expect him this year, by Chris Cotillo de Masslive.
To replace the casas on the active list, the team has selected Abraham ToroTriple-A Wordster contract. Boston had an open place on 40 men, so no other corresponding transaction was necessary. In an additional list movement, the Red Sox have restored Brennan Bernardino from the mourning list and optional Luis Guerrero to triple-a.
Casas’ news is horrible but not surprising. He suffered an obvious injury last night when he clumsily hit the first basic bag while trying to beat a group. He was on the ground in clear pain for a long time and was finally removed from the ground on a stretcher. It seemed likely that it would miss an extended period and this is now confirmed. It has not yet been transferred to the 60 -day IL, but it will happen whenever the SOX need a place of 40 men.
SOX will have to understand what to do to replace the casas at the first basis. Breslow says that all the options are on the table and he has not excluded RAFAEL DEVERS Take over, although the outside field Roman Anthony or infal perspective Marcelo Mayer It is unlikely that it will be moved first.
Devers is currently the full -time -time striker after being fell from the third base by Alex Bregman. Move it in the first base and the opening of the DH SPOT would help the club with alignment crackles elsewhere.
Anthony and Mayer are two of the best prospects for baseball, but both are currently in triple A and somewhat blocked on the list of large leagues. SOXs currently have an outdoor field mixture of Jarren Duran,, WILYER Abreu,, Ceddanne Rafaela And Rob Refsnyder. The inner field in Bregman, History of Trevor And Kristian Campbell At the third basis, at the stop and the second base respectively. Designated aerobatic / striker Masataka Yoshida Could also enter the mixture, although he has fought against shoulder problems and his return calendar is not clear.
With pervers in the DH Spot, it’s a bit of a crowded image. If he had to take over to the first goal, it would open things and allow various players to shoot through the DH Spot. Devers has no professional experience at the start, but a lot of third lower quality basic player has crossed the diamond over the years. While Breslow seemed to leave the door open to the idea, the manager Alex Cora minimize the possibility. “From my end, right now, no…. It’s my DH,” said Cora, according to Alex Speier from Boston Globe.
For the moment, it looks like a user field of public services Romy González will be the first attempt. Cora tells Speier that this is an opportunity for González “to go out and play”. He is the only Boston player apart from Casas to have played the first base this year. Until now, it has a decent season, with a striking line .279 / .340 / .419 and 113 WRC +. However, this comes with no circuit and an average of the stick of .364 on the bullets in play. In his 502 career appearances, he has a line .246 / .277 / .390 and 81 WRC +.
This career production would be an ideal production from the first base, which is generally a position of Bat-D’Abord, but the SOX will try it for the moment. Maybe they will explore certain external options in the coming weeks, seeking to make an exchange or to enter another derogation player. Peter Abraham from Boston Globe says Breslow actually examines the commercial market.
González had already played a multi-positional role, after also playing a few second and third base this year. During his career, he also played at the stop and the outside field. With him to become the first regular basic player of the club for the moment, Toro has been added to add defensive versatility to the bench.
Toro, 28, signed a minor league agreement with the SOX during the offseason. He has performed well in Triple-A so far this year, with a line .310 / .403 / .480, although a Babip .392 makes him favors. During his great league career, he played the three Non-Shortop lower fields and the exterior corners. He has always struck well in Triple-A, but has a line .220 / .285 / .353 and 82 WRC + in 1,298 appearances on the Big League plate.
