Devers went 3-for-5 with two runs scored in Monday's 12-3 win over Baltimore. Devers appears to be emerging from a recent 1-for-24 stretch. He's hit safely in three of the last four games, going 6-for-15 with two walks, a double and three runs scored.

Devers went 1-for-2 with a double, two walks and a run scored in Saturday's 7-5 win over the White Sox. Devers, who hit out of the second spot in the order behind Jarren Duran for a third consecutive game, doubled and scored a run as part of Boston's four-run first inning. That was a response to the White Sox taking a 2-0 lead in the top half of the frame. "We hit the ball hard," Red Sox manager Alex Cora told Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic following the game. "The two lefties (Duran and Devers), we're going to run with that from now on, it doesn't matter, I just feel comfortable with them." Devers had slumped (1-for-24) since a three-game absence due to discomfort in his shoulders, but he's gone 3-for-6 with two walks over the last two games after going hitless out of the two-hole Thursday.

Devers batted second and went 0-for-3 with an RBI in Wednesday's 8-3 loss to the Mets. Devers was moved up the batting order behind Jarren Duran with the hope he'd see more fastballs and emerge from a slump. The theory was sound, but it didn't work out. Devers drove in a run on a sacrifice fly -- his first RBI in seven games -- but went hitless for the fifth time in the last six contests (1-for-24, seven strikeouts).

Devers will bat second in the order Wednesday, Bill Ladson of MLB.com reports. Devers is slumping, and the Red Sox hope moving him up in the order, behind speedy leadoff batter Jarren Duran, will give him a lot of fastballs. Since returning from a three-game stint to rest his shoulders, Devers is 1-for-21 (.048) over five games.

Devers went 0-for-4 in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Mets. Devers worked through discomfort in his shoulders all season, and it may finally be taking its toll on him. Earlier in the season, rest served Devers well, but a three-game sabbatical at the end of Boston's recent homestand hasn't had a similar effect. He's 1-for-17 in four games since returning to the lineup.
