Casey was selected by the Dodgers in the 20th round of the 2017 First-Year Player Draft out of Boston College. Going into the draft he was ranked No. 128 by MLB.com suggesting he would be selected in the first ten rounds. The Dodgers might just have executed another steal in acquiring the 6’2”/190-pound right-handed hitter and versatile outfielder as late in the draft as they did.
The native of Stratford, New Jersey attended Sterling High School in Somerdale in his home state. Following his graduation from high school, Casey headed off to Boston College located in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts.
