The Boston Red Sox just can’t seem to help themselves, can they? Fresh off a major lineup shake-up, they now find themselves at the center of yet another high-stakes drama. When your franchise star makes a brutally honest admission, what’s the next move? Trade rumors, of course! Welcome to the latest episode of How Not to Handle a Superstar.
Finally, the Devers-Bregman situation has been settled—or so it seems. It has been announced that Rafael Devers will serve as the DH for the Red Sox. When asked about this decision, Devers claimed he had no problem with it, but his comments told a different story. Now, it was reported by MLBScoops that Devers might look for a trade, and it comes down to this decision.
Red Sox could listen to offers for Rafael Devers after slow start and not clicking with new management. “Change of scenery” could work for both sides, albeit things are still early. Something to watch.

Devers said in an interview, “Spring workouts were too long.” It seems that, according to Devers, this spring was a bit longer than usual. And now, there is a rumor that the Red Sox are looking to trade Devers, and a change of scenery will help both parties. With the friction that was there before, it looks more likely that this news might be more real than many imagined.
But of course, in Boston, no decision is ever just a decision—it’s a breeding ground for speculation. Devers may be saying all the right things now, but will he still feel the same in July? Or will the Red Sox do what they do best—turn a minor lineup change into a full-blown trade saga? Stay tuned.
