Cora never told him to play 1B because Devers made it quite clear that that wasn’t going to happen. Not sure if Breslow talked to him about it-I kinda recall that conversation happening but I could be wrong. Apologies for the ad here: BOSTON -- Rafael Devers is the Boston Red Sox's designated hitter. And he's not interested in another position switch. ADVERTISING Speaking with reporters for the first time since Triston Casas was ruled out for the season after rupturing his left knee tendon and undergoing surgery, Devers said Thursday that Red Sox management approached him about the idea of filling in as Boston's first baseman. Devers, a three-time All-Star, said he doesn't see it in his best interest to make another position switch after being asked to move from third base to DH during spring training after the Red Sox signed Alex Bregman to play third. "They came to me and talked to me about it," Devers said after homering and driving in two in Boston's 5-0 win over Texas. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/45059014/rafael-devers-tells-red-sox-move-first-base

A "right to be annoyed"??? The team first attitude is "the addition of Bregman makes us a better club. I'll play wherever I am told to play, to the best of my ability". Obviously that did not happen. And given the state of the team now it doesn't matter where he plays. They still will not be playing baseball in Oct.

I know it’s not happening. Neither is world peace or the invention of a perpetual motion machine. That doesn’t mean it shouldn’t happen. It should.

Does a few wins really matter this year? It’s the perfect time to set the proper culture for the team if/when they become competitive again.

Yeah, I remember that now. He should’ve been disciplined like Devers should be disciplined. It’s a team sport. No player should be above the team. It just sends the wrong message.

I think we do have a good farm system now-and that bodes well for the future. But we should be competitive nearly every year. We aren’t-at least we haven’t been

This isn’t a small market team with limited resources like the Rays. We should be competitive nearly every year. This is the fourth year in a row where we stink. That’s inexcusable. Something is rotten with this franchise-probably a lot is rotten, starting with the owners.

If we only sucked for this year or last year and this year that’s fine. But it’s been what-five years now? Something has to change. Can’t fire Henry. Can’t fire the entire roster. So Cora must go.

Wait til next year…..or the year after….of the year after that. It’s a crap franchise owned by a cheapskate owner and run by incompetent management for years now. The Rays with what-20% of our budget are consistently competitive. We aren’t. That’s why Henry has to sell the team, get out. He doesn’t give a crap about winning any more. He use to. Not now.

They never caught up. They lost. I was right.

They never took the lead. Had they done so it would have been one of the rare occasions when I got it wrong. It does happen. Rarely. But not tonight.

I called the game over and they lost. I’m almost always right. But hey-just wait til next year, right?

It was over when the Rays went up 3-0. I called it over then. The Flops never took the lead.

It’s for the best. The flops need to lose every game they play except against the Yankems

8-7 final score BUMS

BOOOOOOOOO!

Don’t look now but after this loss the Flops are just two games out of LAST PLACE in the lost column. Only the horrible O’s are worse.

Not for long Bumadino throws a WP giving away another run Enjoy the loss Glops fans.

Hahahahahaha! Just tuned in for an instant to see Bumadino throw the ball into CF. I don’t know how anyone can watch these bums. I can’t.

2-0 Game over Duran playing little league baseball. Again 3-0 now Anthony joins the little league. Bums Bums Bums outta here

Narvaez can’t catch every game But Wong does suck
