“I do know I am a ballplayer, however on the similar time, they can not count on me to play each single place on the market,” Devers mentioned Thursday, per Christopher Smith of MassLive.com. “In spring coaching, they talked to me and mainly instructed me to place away my glove — that I wasn’t going to play every other place however DH. So proper now I simply really feel prefer it’s not simply an applicable determination by them to ask me to play one other place.”
Who might blame Devers for not wanting to change positions once more, particularly when he is getting the dangle of DH after a tumultuous begin?
On Sunday, in a highway sport in opposition to the Kansas Metropolis Royals. Devers performed at DH. He blasted a 440-foot two-run residence run into heart subject within the prime of the sixth inning. (Left fielder Jarren Duran scored.)
