This was entirely avoidable.

Someone should have had an honest conversation with Raffy years ago and let him know that he wasn't a good defensive 3B, and he was likely going to have to move to 1B or DH sooner rather than later.

For anyone saying Devers should go to 1B, the same could be said for a number of potential 1B candidates. Don't we have any athletes who can do the job better than Devers and also hit at an acceptable level?
 
At the end of the day the Red Sox should have the power to say you're gonna start taking balls at first to prep for the move. If he says no, you just roll over and take it?

Don’t worry Raffy just killed the vibes



I really do like him but you get paid $300 million, don’t be an asshole. Do what’s in the best interest of the team. Casas knee hadn’t detonated, shit happens, things change



Everyone who ragged on Casas, should be ragging on Raffy instead. At least you knew Casas was all for the team. Raffy is getting paid 300 mill and he can't put the TEAM first and go play 1B.

Ridiculous
 
The part where Raffy is like “what if an OF goes down are they going to ask me to play OF?” really grinds my gears. It’s so disingenuous and immature.

Im a big Raffy guy. He’s in the wrong here. Team suffered a catastrophic injury and it would be in the teams best interest for him to at least try. Adrian Gonzalez volunteered to play RF when the team needed it. Devers has the most security in the history of the organization and is simply making the decision not to do what is in the teams best interest out of spite that the team signed a better 3B than him. It is what it is.

Pretty much every 3B who isn’t gold glove caliber can play at least some 1B. If he fails at it he fails at it, but not even trying for the sake of the team is disappointing

Give me a break with Casas all for the team ra ra nonsense but ya I agree Devers deserves criticism.

Oh people are ragging on Raffy in my world

I guess if you have a 300 M contract you can pull this
 
He’s been their franchise cornerstone the last few years and the team has done nothing but collapse down the stretch. What a surprise when the highest paid guy in the franchises history doesn’t prioritize his team winning despite having more security than all of his teammates
 
Casas has never done anything bad. Never pouted. Never had any whining. He's always been hard on himself. But everyone says he's a great teammate.

yet some on here and online hated the kid because he sunbathed, liked his mental swings, and painted his nails.

What?

Never got that sense.

Meanwhile we heard what was going on in Spring Training and we watched Raffy say it with his own mouth.

Raffy is for Raffy, not the team. Making 300 mill, I guess you get leeway. But just seems selfish.

I don't like Casas primarily because he's simply not that good and unreliable. His inflated ego and big mouth is just the cherry on top. At least Devers is good.

How about Raffy puts up more than one season with an OPS over .900 before her starts acting like Manny. He would probably get some leeway if he produced like Manny.

That being said, John Henry created this mess by being cheap then overpaying for Raffy because he got boo'ed at the winter classic.
