It took more than a year, but the Boston Red Sox finally validated the infamous “full throttle” comments that chairman Tom Werner made in November of 2023.

Triston Casas isn’t one to hold back. The Boston Red Sox’ first baseman saw the rumors and speculation around Rafael Devers as a third baseman while Boston pursued and eventually landed Alex Bregman.

The Boston Red Sox have been hard at work this offseason, making several big moves to throw themselves into the playoff hunt in the American League.
