Triston Casas' Rib Injury Derails Red Sox Rehab

On April 1st, Boston Red Sox First Basement, Tristan Kosses is hitting another rough patch in his recovery.

The 26-year-old tore his left knee's patellar tendon last May, putting him on a 14-month road back to the field.

After a strong rookie year in 2023, he's only played 92 games over the last two seasons combined.

Earlier this week, things looked promising during spring training.

Kosses was running bases, practicing slides, and crushing balls in live batting practice.

But now soar ribs have derailed that momentum, forcing the team to pump the brakes on his rehab.

Manager Alex Korra confirmed the news, saying Kosses needs to shut down for a while to avoid bigger issues.

Fans and the front office are feeling the frustration, especially since ribs wrecked his 2024 season 2.

He missed four months after, hitting the injured list early with torn cartilage.

Details on the current rib soreness are still fuzzy, and it's too soon to link it directly to last year's problem.

The original plan had him returning around June 1st, but that timeline's now up in the air,

may be pushing past the all-star brick.

For a talent like Kosses, these non-stop setbacks sting the most.

Let's hope he bounces back stronger and gets that socks line up the boost to craves.
