Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow and team president Sam Kennedy addressed the surprising trade of Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants, emphasizing a lack of alignment on Devers’ future role with the team. Breslow indicated that the front office believed the team would be better off moving forward without Devers, despite acknowledging the difficulty in making such a decision. The executives noted that while Devers did not formally request a trade, discussions regarding a position change hinted at a potential fresh start being beneficial for both parties.
