Glad to have you over here! I imagine it's difficult to rebuild the following.

We were fortunate to catch this talented young man at Fenway this summer. He was certainly missed during his injury.

A Bill Lee for the new generation.

Personally I love the personality of Casas. Remember the ‘03 and ‘04 Sox had a personality that went against the grain of MLB. I can definitely see Casas starting some “Cowboy Up” or “Idiot” movement within the organization a la Kevin Millar.

@dsalmon1449.bsky.social you should read this!

It’s really such a good piece, Jen. Can you tell us your favourite thing that didn’t make it into the piece?

jcmccaffrey.bsky.social•96 days ago

thanks so much and oh man there were so much. The day he bought his own tix to the WooSox game and sat in the stands. The convo with his dad and their relationship could have been a story on its own. How he talked for 20 mins uninterrupted about his path from age 13 to being drafted. So many things

Oh one last question: what is the book he’s writing that you mentioned?!

jcmccaffrey.bsky.social•96 days ago

yes I couldn't fit more about that in there but he basically said it's mostly what I'd written about, just in much greater depth on his life journey and his lessons. He's working on it with is dad but there's no date for release yet

His dad definitely seems like A Character lol
