Red Sox manager Alex Cora expressed full confidence in the defensive versatility of Rafaela, stating the decision is part of a bigger plan to get outfielder Wilyer Abreu more at-bats against right-handed pitchers.
Cora emphasized Abreu's need to play against righties consistently, which will involve moving players around. The focus is on providing Abreu with more opportunities to excel at the plate.
