The Red Sox selected Casas' contract from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

Casas is considered Boston's top prospect and will now receive his first taste of big-league action. The 22-year-old has been limited by injury to 72 games with Triple-A Worcester this year, but he played well when available and posted a .273/.382/.481 slash line with 11 home runs and 38 RBI. Casas should take over as the Red Sox's primary first baseman for the stretch run and will start at the position and bat sixth in his MLB debut Sunday versus the Rangers, per Sean McAdam of BostonSportsJournal.com.
