Red Sox could cut ties with Rafael Devers
Digest more
A Boston Red Sox coach has offered a clear update on where things stand with their outfielder after a surprising leak.
Rafael Devers’ 440-foot homer snapped a 1-1 tie and Lucas Giolito pitched into the seventh inning for his first win since 2023 as the Boston Red Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 3-1 on Sunday.
When the Red Sox signed Alex Bregman for third base in the offseason, Devers moved to designated hitter. And when first baseman Triston Casas suffered a season-ending knee injury earlier in May, Devers was asked to play first, a switch that would better fit the roster construction. His response? Not interested.
John Henry was among Red Sox personnel who flew out to Kansas City to meet with Rafael Devers in person following his blunt remarks.

Boston Red Sox designated hitter Rafael Devers is not interested in moving to first base. The latest position switch proposal comes after he was asked earlier this year to cover third base.
