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.

The Boston Red Sox visit the Kansas City Royals this weekend with a major off-field distraction in designated hitter Rafael Devers.

Devers, who the Red Sox rewarded with a massive $10-year, 313.5 million deal, needs to do whatever it takes for Boston to be in the best possible position to win. By denying to play first base, and then coming out to the media and saying everything he said, he’s wrong, no question.
