David Ortiz advised Rafael Devers to consider transitioning to first base, emphasizing the importance of evaluating what benefits the Red Sox organizationally. Devers has excelled as a designated hitter, leading the league in RBIs and maintaining impressive batting statistics. With Triston Casas injured, the team is facing defensive challenges at first base. Ortiz acknowledges Devers’s strong offensive contributions but stresses the need for him to ponder his role amidst the current lineup challenges, especially given his hesitance to switch initially from third base to DH.
He needs to know that he's an important piece for this organization. He's doing what he was asked. But yeah, I think he should just think about what would be better for the organization, him at first or him as the DH, and go from there.
So, he had a rough start the first couple of weeks but then he's killing it right now. You don't want to mess that up.
