The Red Sox are making headlines in the sports world, and not for good reason.
Rafael Devers fielded questions for the first time about potentially playing first base in place of the injured Triston Casas following Thursday’s 5-0 win against the Rangers. Through a translator, he called out chief baseball officer Craig Breslow for asking him to play the position after making the move to designated hitter from third base upon Boston signing Alex Bregman this past offseason.
According to MassLive’s Christopher Smith, one of Devers’s teammates called the player out mid-interview for publicly airing his grievances.
