Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Casas (ribs) could be close to turning a corner in his recovery, Ian Browne of MLB.comreports.

Cora was relaying what he was told by a trainer and didn't divulge further details, but it's an encouraging update after the skipper indicated over the weekend that Casas was not close to beginning a rehab assignment. A return timeline still appears very much up in the air for the first baseman, who has been sidelined since late April with a strain and torn cartilage in his left rib cage.
