It wasn't his best day at the plate, but he managed to extend his current hitting streak to 13 games. Devers has been fantastic at the plate all year, but he has especially been hot in May. He's slashing .394/.437/.727 this month with four home runs, eight doubles, 12 RBI and 12 runs. He's reached base at least once in every game he's played in since April 24.

He has now recorded at least one hit in six consecutive games and he's reached base at least once in 16 straight. Over nine games in May, the 25-year-old is slashing .361/.425/.611 with two home runs, three doubles, six RBI and six runs scored.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers is not in the starting lineup against the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday. It's just a normal day off for the All-Star third baseman. Fantasy managers with access to daily lineup changes in season-long formats need to put Devers on their benches for Tuesday's action. It will be Devers' first game off of the season after going 19-for-72 with three home runs and eight RBI in the first 17 games. Infielder Christian Arroyo will draw the start at the hot corner in Toronto and bat eighth against Blue Jays right-hander Kevin Gausman. The 26-year-old Arroyo is hitting only .194 (6-for-31) with no home runs and two RBI in 11 games this year and will make for a low-upside cheap DFS play on Tuesday.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers went 1-for-5 with a double and a run scored in the team's 6-1 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on Wednesday. Through 12 games on the year, the 25-year-old is slashing .308/.321/.500 with two home runs, seven RBI and nine runs.

He's recorded at least one hit in each game so far this season.

The Boston Red Sox and third baseman Rafael Devers will not reach a contract extension before the start of the regular season. Devers is under contract through the next two seasons, but he said this offseason that he won't discussion a long-term extension during the year. With shortstop Xander Bogaerts in a similar situation and likely to exercise the opt-out clause in his contract to become a free agent after this season, the 2022 campaign could be the last with both Devers and Bogaerts on the left side of Boston's infield. Devers, 25, is one of the best all-around hitters in the game, regardless of the fact that he doesn't have an extension in hand before Opening Day on Friday against New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers has turned down a contract extension offered by the team. According to MLB Insider's Hector Gomez, the offer was something lower than Devers was willing to consider. The 25-year-old is under team control through the 2024 season, but it's not a good sign for the franchise that he's passing on a long-term deal at this juncture. Devers is coming off yet another standout season. Over 156 games in 2021, he slashed .279/.352/.538 with 38 home runs, 113 RBI and 101 runs.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers is unlikely to sign a long-term extension with the team at this point in time, according to Red Sox beat writer Chris Cotillo. Devers put an Opening Day deadline on the extension talks and Cotillo reports that there is "still no momentum" on a deal, despite the fact that we are now less than 48 hours away from Opening Day. Devers signed a one-year, $11.2 million deal with the club in March to avoid arbitration and through the terms of that deal, he is under team control until the end of the 2024 season.

The Boston Red Sox have had recent discussions with both third baseman Rafael Devers and shortstop Xander Bogaerts about long-term contract extensions. However, neither player is expecting to reach an agreement before Opening Day this week, and neither Devers nor Bogaerts want to discuss contracts during the regular season. Devers can become a free agent after the 2023 season, while Bogaerts has an opt-out clause in his contract after this year that he seems likely to exercise. The combination of Devers and Bogaerts on the left side of Boston's infield is an elite combo, but the pairing could be in their final season in 2022. RotoBaller has Devers ranked as the No. 10 overall fantasy player, while Bogaerts sits at No. 39.

The Boston Red Sox avoided salary arbitration on Tuesday with third baseman Rafael Devers by giving him a one-year, $11.2 million deal, according to a source. The 25-year-old Dominican was a first-time All-Star in 2021, hitting .279/.352/.538 with an .890 OPS, career-high 38 home runs, 113 RBI and 101 runs scored for the BoSox in 664 plate appearances over 156 games played. Devers has a high floor and a high ceiling for fantasy managers and is still relatively cheap in fantasy drafts. He's so attractive because of his elite barrel rate and his low strikeout totals, and he should also continue to rack up the counting stats in a loaded Boston lineup.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers enjoyed yet another quality season at the plate in 2021, further cementing himself as one of fantasy baseball's best at his position, alongside the likes of Jose Ramirez and Manny Machado. The 25-year-old hit .279 with a .352 on-base percentage, 38 home runs and five stolen bases in 664 plate appearances. What's more, he turned in a 9.3% walk rate and a 21.5% strikeout rate. The walk rate represented a new career-high for Devers, while the strikeout rate was the second-lowest of his career. Fantasy managers who miss out on Ramirez in drafts and want to select a third baseman early should consider the Red Sox slugger. Devers should once again be hitting in the top four of a lineup that also features Xander Bogaerts, J.D. Martinezand Enrique Hernandez.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers homered again in Boston's Game 5 loss to the Houston Astros Wednesday, going 2-for-3 with the solo shot. The Red Sox only managed three hits total against Framber Valdez and Ryne Stanek. Devers now has a nine-game hit streak, with five playoff homers, including three in his last four games.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (forearm) saw teammate J.D. Martinez deliver a grand slam in the first inning of Game 2, and he followed up with a slam of his own in the top of the second. Devers also walked and scored a run in five plate appearances. He's gone 9-for-29 with three homers, 10 RBI, and seven runs scored this postseason, which is especially impressive considering he's been dealing with a sore forearm. It doesn't seem to be slowing him down at all, and he isn't expected to miss any time despite appearing to aggravate it on a missed swing.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (forearm) led the way in the clinching Game 4 Monday, going 3-for-4 with a three-run home run to knock out the Tampa Bay Rays. Devers now has two homers and six RBI in his 20 postseason at-bats this year, and he's driven in 20 runs in 65 career postseason at-bats. He's doing plenty to show that that nagging forearm injury won't slow him down, and DFS players can continue to deploy him as long as the Red Sox hang around.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (forearm) has been the subject of much speculation regarding his forearm in the past few days, but on Friday he showed just how much he's still capable of, going 1-for-4 with a two-run home run, two walks, and two runs scored. Devers finished the season with three homers in his last two games, and continued his power surge here, so he appears to be no worse for wear. He'll be grinding it out every day the rest of the way.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (forearm) is experiencing right forearm discomfort, according to Michael Silverman and Alex Speier of the Boston Globe. The Globe reporters stated that the injury has only been flaring up when Devers swings and misses. The expectation at this point is that Devers is going to continue to play through the injury. Red Sox manager Alex Cora has yet to comment on the situation. The 24-year-old struck out twice in the team's Game 1 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays and went 1-for-4 overall.

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers got the scoring started with a solo home run Saturday, and at first it appeared that would be the only run the Red Sox would require, but they eventually won 5-3 over the Washington Nationals. Devers was 1-for-5 in the game. He now has a modest four-game hitting streak going. With a .875 OPS, 36 homers, five steals, 98 runs, and 109 RBI this year, Devers has solidified himself as a star, both on the field and on fantasy rosters.
