The Boston Red Sox face uncertainty at first base following Triston Casas' injury, prompting speculation about potential position changes, particularly involving Rafael Devers. However, manager Alex Cora has firmly reiterated that Devers will remain the designated hitter, emphasizing his comfort in this role after a significant transition from third base earlier this season. The team considers other options for first base but remains committed to Devers's current position without wanting to destabilize the roster further.
"From my end right now, no. We asked him to do something in spring training. In the beginning, he didn't agree with it. Now, he's very comfortable doing what he's doing. Like I told you guys in spring training, he's my DH."
"It’s not delicate at all. We made a decision. We talked to him. He's a DH."
