Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora will face a difficult decision concerning his ailing superstar if Boston falls out of contention soon.
Entering Monday, the Boston Red Sox found themselves four and a half games out of the Wild Card race with just 25 games remaining in the regular season.
An intriguing sub-plot to Boston’s current fight to stay alive is the health of superstar third baseman Rafael Devers, who has been battling shoulder issues since spring training. “If the Red Sox fall further out of wild card contention, it may be worth it to shut Devers down for the season,” Manganelli wrote. “The third baseman is too important to Boston's future to be forcing him to play in games that don't matter in a postseason race.”
