Rafael Devers says he ‘never felt like myself’ during 2024 season

Rafael Devers’ season came to a premature end this weekend, with the star third baseman placed on the injured list due to shoulder inflammation.

Even though Devers will avoid offseason surgery to correct his lingering pain, Alex Cora acknowledged on Sunday that the All-Star has dealt with shoulder issues throughout the 2024 season — starting in spring training.

“The left one is the one that really bothers him, as far as, like, the swing. It’s been going on since spring training,” Cora told Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe.
