David Ortiz has made his stance on the Rafael Devers situation crystal clear over the last week.
Since the Red Sox traded their former star slugger on Sunday, the all-time great Ortiz has backed his former team’s decision online multiple times, primarily citing Devers’s unwillingness to put Boston before himself — as Ortiz saw it.
On Saturday, Ortiz took things a step further, going on a tirade against Devers on Instagram Live during the Red Sox-Giants game, in which Devers hit a home run against Boston.
During the Instagram live, Ortiz again brought up Devers’s frustration about his offseason position change, saying that he wasn’t in any position to put his foot down on the matter.
