The Boston Red Sox don't anticipate slugger Rafael Devers playing in the field for the rest of the 2025 season, according to MassLive.com's Chris Cotillo and Sean McAdam.

Boston Red Sox management could have forced Rafael Devers to pick back up his glove and play first base, but that's not what happened.

The Boston Red Sox made a critical decision to make Rafael Devers a permanent designated hitter. The move caused controversy, especially when they asked him to play first base when Triston Casas went down.
