Rafael Devers has drawn plenty of headlines in recent days given his candid comments about Craig Breslow, Boston’s front office, and his unwillingness to make the switch to first base following Triston Casas’ season-ending injury.
The 28-year-old designated hitter has yet to comment to the media since his media scrum on Friday at Fenway Park — with a sit-down between himself, Red Sox owner John Henry, Breslow, and manager Alex Cora in Kansas City standing as the latest development in the disgruntled slugger’s standing with Boston.
It remains to be seen if Devers will eventually relent and move to first, or if the Red Sox will pivot elsewhere to address Casas’ absence in the infield.
