Boston Red Sox legend Manny Ramirez has offered a theory about why things between Rafael Devers and the organization fell apart to the point they traded him to the San Francisco Giants in a surprise blockbuster on Sunday night.

The Boston Red Sox traded Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants, but they do not intend to give up on the season. Could they trade for some stars?

Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow acknowledged on a conference call Sunday night that the deal leaves a hole in the lineup, but he hoped it would pay off this season. Although there is a newly created need for a power hitter, the team now has roster and payroll flexibility to add players at the trade deadline, he said.
