BIG RED SOX INJURY NEWS!! (Triston Casas, Vaughn Grissom, and MORE)

[@dylcor]

I think it’s pretty damn impressive that the Red Sox have made it to where they are without 3/4 of our regular infield.

[@IvanLendl87]

Completely agree.

[@redseatradio]

Yeah it’s genuinely incredible

[@traci635]

So agree

[@josephdubiel7129]

Gotta love it

[@dustinssimpson]

Especially since most of the replacements are a net negative

[@bobmessier5215]

Another good job, Corbin. Things are trending in a positive direction for the Sox. Got my fingers crossed that they can make the postseason when anything can and does happen.

[@redseatradio]

Yeah they are but we will see

[@austin5019]

Awesome that Triston Casas is back on the field!!!

[@redseatradio]

Very awesome

[@huyettr]

Casas: When you have pain with this type of injury, it is a signal that you are further injuring yourself.

[@lanecobb4150]

Nick Sogard did great in his MLB debut last night. 2 run single in front of his family. What a feel good story! I think he also had another single and a walk.

[@travisheldreth5021]

I watched te Woo Sox on the off day. Finally got to see Grissom when he had it together at the plate and it was encouraging. Casas did look like he might need a couple of weeks. Now, if Grissom comes back close to the level of performance he had in Atlanta and Casas is just Casas that would be like having a blockbuster trade. If the bullpen gets back on track and Houck, Bello and Kutter can all hold steady this team can should be feared. Can't wait to see them at full steam.

[@redseatradio]

Yeah we have never seen a full Grissom in a Red Sox uniform and people dont get that. Getting these guys back is huge

[@prodigyheat9578]

I’m excited to see a back of the bullpen of Hendricks,Martin, and Kenley. Even add Slaten to that, that would be an elite bullpen

[@redseatradio]

Yeah on paper I think it would be one of the best in baseball

[@deversandbello]

great update video thanks for the hard work corbin

[@jameshokans3834]

I would like to see if Casas can get rid of his vicious recoil on his follow through on big swing. He needs to watch the follow through of the Splendid Splinter. That recoil has to be really hard on his ribs and core.

[@likearollingstone007]

Thanks for the report Corbin

Thanks Corbin.

[@redseatradio]

Thanks for watching!

[@mykelengieza7057]

Got goosebumps... Tristan is so close!

[@redseatradio]

He’s getting there

[@spoonful1018]

Oblique injuries have a long recovery, and Casas has a violent swing.

[@redseatradio]

They are, but it has also been 3 months too so it already has been a long recovery

[@brentbell7235]

Near term I think the most impactful return from injury is Martin. Can never have enough high leverage relievers. On the position side I want Grissom to stay in AAA, but not necessarily until next year. I want him to get to a point where he is fully healthy, and absolutely raking at AAA… then look to bring him up… With Casas do not rush him. Smith is holding the fort. Casas needs time to get healthy and get his timing and baseball legs working. The rest come when they are ready.

[@ShawnFoote-f5k]

Great content

[@petergarcia6645]

I think they will be super conservative with Cases and I wouldn't be surprised if Grissom stays in Worcester until spring training. Good updates as usual 👍🙏

[@redseatradio]

Hey thanks for watching

[@kevinw.3330]

Very good info, some positive news will be good.

[@redseatradio]

Yeah always good

[@kennethnadolny7553]

Matin and Hendrix if fully healthy will bring a necessary boost to the 7 and 8 inning. In the interim Bernardino and Garcia seem to be the specialist in that role for a batter Po that we saw against Texas p.. it seems funny that the position the Red Sox are deepest in is there worst defensively.

[@joedee_v2186]

I definitely think Grissom will be with the major league team again this year I think it will probably be in the next two weeks, just when he gets his timing back and is feeling good physically. The swing looks great

[@LeeFromLynn]

Houck looked too cool and calm last night giving up those bombs

[@dennisszantyr7636]

I think it's pretty positive news mostly. Hopefully Kenley Jansen is not too bad and it will be a short time he's out for. I think on the everyday player Tristan Casas return is most impactful. That's not to say Liam Hendrix or Chris Martin are any less important just think Casas is most impactful. Have a great one Corbin!! "Let's Go Red Sox "!!! We got a tough schedule so gotta keep the pedal to the metal!!

[@redseatradio]

Yeah really tough schedule hopefully they can figure it out

[@Versatilty]

WAIT!!!... Relatively good injury news? Are we sure this is the Red Sox? Hendrix needs to be back before the end of August to be able to pitch in the post season so he will be back by then or not at all in my opinion.

[@redseatradio]

Shhhhhhh dont say that out loud what are you crazy??

[@Versatilty]

@@redseatradio true

[@bob92864]

I've been away for a few days . I haven't seen David Hamilton in the infield in recent days, is he injured?

[@tsid160]

These next nineteen games against the Rangers, Royals, Astros and Orioles will likely be the make or break difference if the Red Sox remain in the hunt for a wildcard playoff berth ... Casas, Grissom, Martin, Slaten, Hendricks and Kenley Jansen can't come back soon enough ... Craig Breslow acquiring James Paxton, Luis Garcia, Lucas Sims, and Danny Jansen may be the deciding factor in the team getting positively through this tough stretch of their schedule ...

[@redseatradio]

Yeah we will see. We’ve been saying series or stretches are going to determine the whole season this entire season.

[@jimdake3571]

Just gotta say, Jose Iglesias, who last seen in Fenway hit .356, is hitting .331 for the Mets, after 1 1/2 years relegated to the minors. Who exactly did he P. off in Boston? He's always hit here. Could've been a solid IF solution for the past 2 years. Even if he's not a human highlight reel anymore, he's still solid, flexible and hits. And wouldn't have had to trade Sale to get him.

[@OH_MY_DOGGG]

I think what contributes to my dispondance is a renewed transparency from the organization. Which is good. But the downside to that would be getting so many" soft updates" especially on Casas. So that much requires an adjustment. I feel like the red sox generally just say a lot of things as opposed to a less is more principle.

[@redseatradio]

I think that’s fair but this one is more concrete. He is making legitimate progress now

[@erikjager4704]

The Vaughn Grissom situation is interesting because it can go several different ways. Is Chris Martin somewhat expendable at this point? Who would he be an upgrade over currently in their bullpen? Henricks and Slaten offer more upside.

[@redseatradio]

I would say he is much more reliable in a high leverage situation than anyone the Sox have in the bullpen right now and I actually think statistics would agree if I remember correctly so no I don’t think he’s expendable

[@ZaCk_vFL_wHiTFiELd]

I heard that the Red Sox are already contenders for Max fried. I know this is way early but do you think there's a way we get him. And possibly someone else? Thoughts #GoSox

[@joedee_v2186]

Also Chris Martin typically only does one rehab game and decides if he’s good to go or not

[@traci635]

Hamstring injuries are hard to return from, I'd say if Sogard gets playing time in Boston and produces, keep Grissom in Worcester and let him heal! Grissom is supposed to be a future piece, let's keep him in Worcester and worry about next season. As for Casas, pain management is fine and dandy, but it causes you to compensate, so if Casas is still having pain, WAIT a few weeks and make sure he's healthy. Don't rush a future star just to get him on the field. Dom Smith can hold the spot till Casas is ready. Hendrix and Martin should be coming soon, Staten may be best to wait to hopefully avoid Tommy John surgery. Honestly if Sims and Garcia pitch well, don't rush any of these guys.....great injury break down Corbin

[@redseatradio]

I don’t really think the pain is at the point of him having to over compensate elsewhere. I think he, the medical staff, and the team have been really careful about his return and to me that’s a big reason why I think they are confident he is good enough to play again

[@T10356]

Do you think they keep Grissom down and if Casas gets well soon move romy over to second and platoon him and Hamilton?

[@acegolfman3203]

I would keep Grissom in AAA. If you bring him up he’s more likely to ruin the mojo imo verses to be above what we already have

[@mctaguer]

Giving up on Vaughn Grissom after only 20 games isn't just kind of insane. It's dumb. It'll be interesting to see what the Sox do with him.

[@redseatradio]

Agreed

[@fastfrank42]

Today is the 2nd, so we are six days closer to seeing Grissom in the lineup. Hamilton is better at 2nd, then he is at short stop. Sogard is a much better fielder at short or second.

[@stephenrosiak8002]

Is Luis Garcia with the team. The biggest person could be added into this mix would be Liam hendriks it's all about pitching pitching pitching. ⚾⚾⚾

[@Jackson54321]

I’m pretty sure he is, the Sox got an off day yesterday so I’d assume so.

[@redseatradio]

Yeah he is with the team, there will probably be a roster move later. If it is a big one I will make a video but I have a feeling it will be bailey horn to AAA

[@cleebbb]

Send weissert down next when someone comes back 🤞🏼

[@redseatradio]

He is down

[@philipdevincentis8566]

Nick Sogard may be the 2nd baseman the rest of 2024. Switch hitter, who hits and fielding more than adequate.Casas and Grissom Just go slow and be ready for 2025 Hendricks, Martin, Slaten, Jansen, all should be ready for the race to that 3rd spot postseason

[@philipdevincentis8566]

The more we know of the Roster and what players should be ready to comeback from injuries is encouraging. My only concern is can we do it with the Roster and the earlier timing of the comebacks or too late on the timing of the comebacks.

[@The300Show]

Giving up on Grissom so quick when Casas made so many people eat their words is and forever will be nuts to me.

[@redseatradio]

Not to mention Duran and houck too

[@The300Show]

@@redseatradio Exacrly! These guys are all individuals and unique. Everyone takes a different amount of time to adjust and some don’t adjust at all.

[@ShawnFoote-f5k]

Grissom for Sale was a disaster of a trade. Sale has been lights out.

[@redseatradio]

It’s been 20 games out of 6 years of control. Less than 1% of the total games he could potentially play. Is 1% really a big enough sample size to make a FULL assumption on?

[@jmrnv2670]

I would leave Grissom at AAA for remainder of year

[@michaellalli7693]

I’m not holding out hope that Casas will be a big impact? It’s going to take some time for him to adjust to MLB pitching. Hope he can swing without pain.

[@redseatradio]

Eh like I said I dont think timing will really be an issue with Casas because he’s just a freak of nature, I think it’ll be swing decisions that he needs to adjust too and he’s always been really solid

[@markdecarolis8714]

Him not doing his rehab right might be the cause of him hurting still...(3 months). It will take him some time to get his swing right...Sept. call up...

[@redseatradio]

It physically can’t take until the end of September as the only have 20 days to add him back. That is the biggest reason I think the Sox and Triston are comfortable with his pain levels and he definitely did rehab correctly its just a tricky injury man

Weird comment

[@markmccarthy7887]

If Casas is still experiencing pain that’s not a good sign , it could take a down turn very quickly…please leave Grissom in the minors …he needs it big time….and yes Sale being 13-3 with a 2.71 era stings ..and yes I thought he was going to have a good year before he was traded …Hendricks would be huge

[@redseatradio]

Maybe. People said that with Refsnyder too and he has been one of the Sox more reliable players while playing through his broken to or devers who everyone including myself said shouldnt play through if he is experiencing pain(which he is) yet he is having the best year of his career. So no I don’t think it’s a really bad sign at all

Keep Von Grissom in the minors. We really got fleeced by the Braves. Put Hamilton at second and keep him there. Same with Cedanne at short. If the Q kid we just traded forgets it together, bring him up and put Pivetta in the bullpen.

[@redseatradio]

It’s been 20 games. You can’t get fleeced in 20 games out of a 6 years of control dude. You are judging this 23 year old on less than 1% of how long the Sox have him for. Really think about that.

[@jameshokans3834]

Look Corbin we have been following the trials and tribulations of Sale for years, and I think most of your followers could tell that this was the year that Sale was going to have a breakout year. The Braves’ GM suspected it too. So we got stuck with the fragile man child and the Braves got The Man.

[@redseatradio]

20 games James. You are basing your ENTIRE opinion on 20 games. Do you still hate Duran, Casas, houck or Abreu or Ceddanne because of their first 20 games too? Of course not. Think.

Trade him for what? Because if you want anything back they are going to have to take on the entire contract so now you’re just paying him anyways. Makes 0 sense to trade him

Regarding Casas, pain indicates he is further injuring himself by aggravating it.

[@redseatradio]

Or that it’s just not 100% yet. Casas has been very careful, the team has been very careful with his progression I don’t think either party would allow him to start again if the weren’t confident he was okay to do so.
