Triston Casas is ready to make his mark on Major League Baseball.
On Friday, the Boston Red Sox phenom Casas showed off a unique painted nails look. Casas was wearing bright red nail polish on his fingernails and white nail polish on his toenails. The 23-year-old said he will “likely” be wearing his nails like that during the MLB season.
Here is the picture of Casas’ nails, per Red Sox beat writer Julian McWilliams of the Boston Globe.
Casas was also spotted wearing black nail polish at the Red Sox “Winter Weekend” fan event last month.
The first baseman Casas was Boston’s first-round draft pick in 2018 and was MLB’s No. 25-ranked prospect in 2022. While Casas hit just .197 in 27 total appearances for the Red Sox last season, he is expected to get plenty of run in 2023 as the team’s everyday first baseman.
Since Casas will be wearing a glove while fielding and batting gloves while hitting, we might not see his nails on the field very often. But that look is even a step above the painted nails we saw on another young athlete.

You misspelled “Fags”. /jk
Projectile hurl.
What happened to this country?
I think he’s ‘straight’; but he needs a better manicurist...
Not sure what your point is? Mine was that if they are just going to spout the same woke nonsense who cares what writes it, in fact i prefer AI just so another “journolist” is unemployed.
To that end I find employing Turing tests and Winograd schemas quite effective in sorting out AI drivel and just ignore it altogether.
Well, he’s probably a “catcher” of some sort even if he doesn’t play that position on the baseball field.
Maybe he and mayor Petey can have a private “ball” game.
I tried to care.
“While Casas hit just .197.”
For the Red Sox, batting a buck ninety seven makes you a phenom.
Red Sox are going to have a long year.
There was a time when you got noticed for your baseball stats. This guy must be “Bush-league!”
I worked for a VP of Sales about 25 years ago who got manicures. I thought it was REALLY WEIRD for a man to do that.
Makes since, since the Red Sox (and most things Boston) suck.
Nail maintenance is fine and a sign of good hygiene. This is not that.
Well, it will be an interesting experiment to see if painted nails hinder or aid the batter in seeing the pitcher’s finger placement on the ball. So there’s that.

Oops. He’s a first baseman.
Never mind. - Emily Litella
No kidding. He should use gel Polish. You get that nice, long lasting shiny finish. They last a lot longer under tough conditions. You can paint little flowers and puppies on them.
This looks like the work of a drunk white girl. This guy needs to go see some Koreans…fast.
(I had two daughters and a wife who liked manicures.)
Last year was too long. This year is going to really suck.
I thought they were all Vietnamese.
I just paid the bills…I thought they looked Korean. The Chinese had the spa around the corner. The Vietnamese tend to run Restaraunt’s here.
Red Sox Fans: no thanks.
