Legendary Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz may have taken a shot at Rafael Devers with an Instagram story he posted on Friday.
The story featured Ortiz posing next to giant block numbers of his retired No. 34 at Fenway Park. An accompanying caption read:
“The thing is that to have some like this at boston you have to just not be a hitter you have to be the full package a all the way around Player…go sox.” [sic]
More words on the post referred to the Red Sox as the “best organization in baseball.”
Any other week, this likely would have been taken as Ortiz shouting out his longtime organization and acknowledging what it takes to be recognized by them. This week however, which has seen a media firestorm surround the Red Sox front office in the wake of the Rafael Devers trade, there is pretty obvious subtext.
Former Red Sox stars Pedro Martinez and Manny Ramirez have criticized Boston brass for their handling of the Devers situation. In turn, the Red Sox PR machine has working overtime to make Devers appear selfish. It looks like we know where Big Papi stands in this whole mess.
