The controversy over which position $313.5 million slugger Rafael Devers will play in the Boston Red Sox infield may have repercussions for another player.

Alex Bregman will make his Red Sox spring debut at third base Sunday. Rafael Devers won't play in the game, but he's making strides toward playing, too.

The Boston Red Sox completed a strong offseason of work when they signed former Houston Astros third baseman to a three-year, $120 million contract in free agency. And yet, while the move completes Boston's roster on paper, it has created a complicated situation involving their cornerstone player, Rafael Devers.
