The younger brother of Red Sox 2018 first-rounder Triston Casas, Gavin has a similar profile as a power-oriented first baseman but doesn’t have the size or feel for hitting that Triston had at the same time. A 6-foot-3, 225-pound lefthanded hitter, Casas does have some power in the tank and flashes it at times, but scouts don’t think he’s able to get to all of it with the way he moves in the box presently. Defensively he is a below-average runner who will be limited to a corner. It wouldn’t be surprising to see Casas grow into more of his natural strength and learn to tap into his power more frequently at Vanderbilt. Casas is also old for the class and turned 19 in April.
