Boston Red Sox first baseman Tristan Casas is going into his seventh season at the club and is qualified to have an opinion on the GOAT in his position.

The 24-year-old was signed in round one if the 2018 draft.

He named four players to his Mount Rushmore of players since 2000 and believes Adrian Gonzalez, Freddie Freeman, Joey Votto and Matt Olson are the quartet.

He was called up to the Red Sox main roster on September 4, 2022, and has built a solid early season career.

Gonzalez played for Rangers, Padres, Red Sox, Dodgers and Mets in a 15-year career averaging .287.

Freeman is currently playing for the Dodgers and is a World Series champion as an Atlanta Braves player.

He averages .302 with the bat.

Votto has signed a minor league contract with the Blue Jays but was sensational for the Cincinnati Reds for 17 seasons, averages .294 and is a six time All-Star.

Olson is another current player who is part of the Braves, who started his career at the Oakland Athletics.

He averages .256 but the 30-year-old has a few solid years to pad the numbers.
