Craig Breslow doesn’t rule out Rafael Devers playing 1B after Triston Casas injury, but Alex Cora wants him at DH

Triston Casas’s 2025 is likely over as he suffered a ruptured patellar tendon in his left knee on Friday, leaving the Red Sox with a hole at first base for the rest of the season.

As the Red Sox played Romy Gonzalez at first base for Saturday’s game against the Twins and called up Abraham Toro to help fill the void, there’s another name who could potentially enter the mix: Rafael Devers.

Well, that actually depends on who you ask. Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow didn’t rule out the idea of putting Devers back on the field as he became the team’s primary designated hitter this season.
