The doctor examining Casas said such injuries are more commonly seen in hockey and football players following collisions, and expressed surprise Casas suffered the cartilage damage solely based on swinging. “He pretty much chalked it up to me being so big, rotating so fast so many times that I pretty much created a car crash within my body, and it was a matter of time before this happened,” said Casas. “He said it was something similar to a pitcher needing Tommy John, just an inevitable thing that was going to happen sooner or later.” Casas — who said it remains painful to breathe, thus rendering any cardio or strength training impossible — said he will require “a lot of rest to help it heal.”
The Red Sox never recovered from Jacoby Ellsbury's injury in 2010. John Tomase wonders if losing Triston Casas will have a similar impact on this club.
The Red Sox have been decimated by injuries early this season, which makes their 13-10 start even more impressive writes John Tomase.
