This is a clinic from Alex Bregman on how to diffuse controversy:

Bregman on Devers: “I’m super excited to just to be his teammate. He’s a great player. I think everybody in this clubhouse is worried about winning and whatever it takes to help the team win, that’s what I’m focused on. I’ll play wherever AC tells to play.”

His relationship with Devers: “We’ve been having a lot of fun. We’ve been taking ground balls; doing our work together. Talking about winning; talking about baseball; talking about [being] excited for the season.”

On Devers comments: “I think everybody in here believes in their abilities and I think all of us believe that if we all put together a good effort this season, we have a really good chance of having a winning baseball season … I can only talk for myself. I’ll play wherever it helps the team win.”

What did the Sox tell you about your position when they were trying to sign you: “Whatever helps the team win.”

Do you want reps at second base: “AC just told me to be ready for whatever. I’m just going to try my best to get ready for the season and help this team win.”

I'd be more sympathetic to Devers if he didn't have a donut for a glove at 3B.

To flat out refuse the DH role, from a Red Sox perspective, is pretty poor.
