8:14-9:30 That's the closest a MLB player will get to calling out management/ownership in Spring Training, and certainly the first time Raffy has said something like that. Good for him.
I agree with one of the chatters, an athlete regardless of what team does need to or should know, some English if they (him/whomever) come from say DR or wherever
He's a great baseball player. That's what matters most. He is taking English classes through the Red Sox organization. It's not easy to learn a new language, especially being a professional star athlete.
They're asking Raffy tough questions, putting him on the spot and he aint dodging. Good for him. Bogie's gone, Cora's gone after this year. Help the kid out.
Well said Raffy. They didn't get nobody last yaer and this year. That the reason I not going to fenway this year.. they just want to make money not spend it.. we are the new Oakland A's...😢
Así como Devers se desahogo nosotros también debemos demostrar el descontento que la gerencia no hicieran ningún movimiento de impacto, otro años más decepcionante en el sótano nos espera
He knows he doesn’t feel comfortable to reply without saying something not accurate. He has replied in English in others conversations. To be honest sometimes is even better to used a translator to help and not F…up. (Talking as a Dominican that sometimes the English is off )
How can a ball player be a team leader when he can’t speak English? If I was a teammate and couldn’t communicate it’s hard to learn. Even with an interpreter it’s very strange. And not being a defensive player makes it even harder.
I just saw that too, what a joke. Why would you want to degrade your own players by putting their projected stats for the next season? What a D move that is.
Even Rafy is not happy with the owners, i think he should ask them to trade him, because he is not gonna have a future in the organization. The most frustrating thing is that the team doesn’t need a complete overhaul, the team just needs a couple of eating innings Pitchers and this team is Gold!
Raffy is signed to a long term contract, if ownership wants to make an example out of him, theyre either going to have to eat $200 million or trade him to the Dodgers...where hed be more than happy to reunite with Mookie Betts. How do you say "Hey Kennedy, you cant touch me!" in Spanish?🤣
One of if not the worst ownership in baseball. They have pretty much done everything possible to ruin such a proud franchise. I wish fans could get together & get everyone to boycott at least one game. If we could get fans to agree do it during a primetime ESPN game. That's will hurt ownership more than anything. However I realize that's basically impossible, but I wish as a Red Sox fan base we could make that happen. Ownership clearly doesn't care about us fans so I just wish we could show them in a very public way how unhappy we are as fans right now. I've been a Red Sox fan my entire life, but even before the WS drought in 2004 I've never been more frustrated and disappointed in my favorite teams ownership. I guess in some ways I probably owe Bloom an applogy because it's clear now it wasn't all on him although I don't think he faught back against what ownership wanted. He did think he could make the Red Sox like Tampa but it failed miserably. I do know it wasn't all Bloom even though I never agreed with the hire. "Everybody knows what we need. You know what we need. Just some things I can't say. Ownership knows what we need!" Raffy Devers. Enough said!

Yeah I was very surprised to hear him speak up. Good for him. He’s the leader of the team now and it shows.
Fuego pa la gerencia!!
He's our franchise player
Raffy. A man of the PEOPLE 🫶
Captain Raffy telling it how it is. I love this kid.
Dever le mando fuego esa bendita gerencia
Nice that Raffy agrees that ownership should be doing more!
Thanks Raffy ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Translator translated half of what he really said, either he was protecting Devers or the organization.
SOMETHING has to change. We were a move away from world series contention and we blew it up.

Red Sox are Full Throttle - EgyptAir Flight 990 style! Good for Devers calling out ownership!
Bien por devers tamo frustrados los fanáticos con incertidumbre si quedaremos en el sotano del este
Así como Devers se desahogo nosotros también debemos demostrar el descontento que la gerencia no hicieran ningún movimiento de impacto, otro años más decepcionante en el sótano nos espera
Raffy is wasting his best years..As a Red Six fan hope he goes to a good ball club in the next few years
Raffys gotta work on his English like Ortiz and Manny did. It’d help him as a leader!
On manny Ramírez, the things are different, about inglés, him go to school here in the unites states!!
Well if you can’t communicate you can’t be a leader.
Así se habla raffy !
I like how Raffy can understand English enough to know what they are asking but not enough to answer them.
He knows he doesn’t feel comfortable to reply without saying something not accurate. He has replied in English in others conversations. To be honest sometimes is even better to used a translator to help and not F…up. (Talking as a Dominican that sometimes the English is off )

Those 2023 stats on the screen are wrong. Those are his 2024 projections according to baseball reference. NESN/Red Sox can't get anything right.
