I just love his excuse of "having already changed positions"....YOU DIDNT DUMBASS! YOU SWITCHED TO DOING HALF YOUR JOB FOR SAME PAY!

Curious what the Bostonites here have heard/think?
The team handled the situation like a bunch of amateurs from the start. From what I know about this is when the team signed Bregman they did so without letting Devers know how they planned to handle the 3b situation and then had to cajole him into being the DH. Now they want him to play 1st and he's acting like a big turd. It is not endearing with the fan base. He's coming across as a malcontent and bad teammate.

Team management isn't coming across as competent in their own handling but Devers looks worse. He's playing a game and should be happy for the opportunity.
When you think Devers think Manny Ramirez. God given ability to hit & similar number of brain cells. The Red Sox barely rode that mental case Manny to several World Series. You can’t really reason with someone marginally more intelligent than a golden retriever.

The Manny Ramirez stories in Boston are some of the best MLB ever had to offer. I was blessed to witness the carnival first hand. Best right handed hitter I ever saw

In fairness, to this point Devers had been similarly lovable. Nothing made me smile more than Devers visibly talking to himself at the plate.

I don’t fault Sawks coaching. If anyone had a shot it was Cora.
