Boston Red Sox designated hitter Rafael Devers was named the American League Player of the Week after an impressive performance, going 10-for-21 with two home runs, eight RBI, and a 1.386 OPS over the past week. This accolade came amid controversy as Devers publicly criticized the team’s front office for suggesting he move to first base following Triston Casas’ injury, prompting discussions with team management. Despite the situation, Devers continued to excel, notably finishing with 6-for-7, including a homer and five RBI in the last two games against Kansas City.
