Fantasy Analysis
Casey was a valuable asset for the Red Sox when Mike Lowell was on the DL in April, but since he has been out of the lineup, Lowell has returned and that has forced Kevin Youkilis back to first. Casey returns to his role as a reserve and that makes him a less than attractive Fantasy option at this time. (Updated 05/12/2008).
Casey was activated from the 15-day disabled list on Monday, and to make room for him, the Red Sox designated reliever Julian Tavarez for assignment. (Updated 05/12/2008)
Advice
Casey was on the DL as he was recovering from a strained right hip. He hurt himself running the bases April 25 and went on a two-game rehabilitation assignment with Triple-A Pawtucket. Casey was hitting .346 (18-for-52) with eight RBIs in 17 games before he was hurt.
