BOSTON, MA—The Boston Red Sox today placed first baseman Triston Casas on the 10-Day Injured List with a left rib strain. To fill Casas’ spot on the active roster, the club recalled catcher Tyler Heineman from Triple-A Worcester.

Casas, 24, has batted .244 (19-for-78) with an .857 OPS, 12 runs scored, three doubles, six home runs, 10 RBI, and 12 walks in 22 games this season. The left-handed hitter is tied for third in the American League and tied for fourth in MLB in home runs. Originally selected by the Red Sox in the first round (26^th overall) of the 2018 First-Year Player Draft, the Florida native has batted .252 (147-for-583) with an .844 OPS, 25 doubles, two triples, 35 home runs, 87 RBI, and 101 walks in 181 career games with Boston (2022-24).

Heineman, 32, has played in nine games for Worcester this season, batting .259 (7-for-27) with a .412 on-base percentage, seven runs scored, five walks, and two stolen bases. The switch-hitter has made seven starts as the catcher and one as the designated hitter. Originally selected by the Houston Astros in the eighth round of the 2012 First-Year Player Draft, the California native has batted .218 (54-for-248) in 104 career games with the Miami Marlins (2019), San Francisco Giants (2020), Toronto Blue Jays (2022-23), and Pittsburgh Pirates (2022-23). Boston acquired Heineman from the New York Mets on February 2, 2024, in exchange for cash considerations.
