Johnny Damon -- like so many Red Sox fans -- wishes Rafael Devers' Boston careerhad ended differently ... telling TMZ Sports this week the situation is "just horrible for everyone."
The former Sox outfielder sat down with us on Wednesday, some three days after Devers was jettisoned to San Francisco, and he made it clear, he would have preferred both sides work their differences out.
He said the trade is unfortunate for nearly every party, but noted Red Sox supporters are likely hurting the most.
