Boston Red Sox hitting star Rafael Devers said Thursday that he informed team management that he will not play first base in the wake of Triston Casas being lost for the season due to a major knee injury.

I don’t feel that they stayed true to their word," he said. "They told me that I was going to be playing this position, DH, and now they’re going back on that."

Devers said Red Sox management approached him about filling in at first base in the wake of Triston Casas' season-ending injury.
