7 years agoBoston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (shoulder) said on Thursday that he expects to return in time to play Boston's second game after the All-Star break. The 21-year-old hard-hitting Devers was placed on the disabled list on Thursday, though an MRI showed no structural damage to his shoulder. Devers is having a down year compared to his 2017 campaign, though he already has more home runs (14) than he did in 2017 (10). Owners should hold onto him to see how his second half pans out.--Mauricio Castillo

1 week agoBoston Red Sox manager Alex Cora admitted on Wednesday that third baseman Rafael Devers will open the 2025 regular season as the team's regular designated hitter. "Alex Bregman is going to play third, Raffy's going to DH. We all are in the winning business. He understands that," Cora said. Devers said earlier this spring that he had no plans to DH and wanted to remain at third base despite battling through injuries to both of his shoulders in 2024 that kept him from swinging a bat until the start of spring training. Everything changed when the BoSox signed Bregman in free agency. With Devers at DH full time, Bregman will play the hot corner, giving prospect Kristian Campbell the runway to impress at second base. The 28-year-old Devers will still have 3B eligibility in fantasy this year, but that might not be the case in 2026, which would drastically affect his fantasy value.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 weeks agoBoston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers is very unlikely to play third base before the end of spring training, according to manager Alex Cora. Devers dealt with injuries to both of his shoulders last year and didn't resume swinging until the start of spring training, which resulted in him not making his Grapefruit League debut until just last weekend. Additionally, the BoSox signed third baseman Alex Bregman in the offseason, which makes Devers' move to more of a full-time role as the designated hitter more probable, even if Boston has yet to announce it. Not only is Bregman the better defender at the hot corner, but using Bregman at third and Devers at DH will open up a spot for prospect Kristian Campbell at second base. Devers is still a starting third baseman in all fantasy leagues, but it's possible that he could lose 3B eligibility going into 2026.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

3 weeks agoBoston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (shoulder) and outfielder Wilyer Abreu (illness) are in the starting lineup on Saturday. Devers will be the DH and bat in the two-hole while Abreu will cover right field and bat eighth. Devers has been dealing with a shoulder injury throughout most of camp. There have been reports that he could begin the season exclusively as a designated hitter. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status but seeing him return to the starting lineup is a positive sign. Abreu battled an illness throughout camp and even lost some weight as a result. The team may opt to increase his workload slowly during the remainder of camp to ensure he is ready for Opening Day. During the regular season, Devers will likely see time at the hot corner and at DH while Abreu will see most of his starts in right field.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

3 weeks agoBoston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (shoulder) said he will be fine if the team wants him to serve as the designated hitter on Opening Day. "I don't make those decisions," Devers said after talking to chief baseball officer Craig Breslow and manager Alex Cora a few weeks ago. The 28-year-old has changed his tune after saying on Feb. 17 that "third base is my position. I play third." Devers is finally scheduled to make his Grapefruit League debut this Saturday after working on his swing during spring training following issues with both of his shoulders last year. Meanwhile, new addition Alex Bregman is a Gold Glove third baseman and has been at the hot corner all spring. Devers could see time at third at some point in 2025, but all signs are pointing to him opening the year as the full-time DH with Masataka Yoshida (shoulder) starting on the injured list.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
