Message: [QUOTE="dasher, post: 5447504, member: 6061"] You don't think Devers was difficult? A total child that was not a good teammate. Not running balls out. Refusing to play a position because his feelings were hurt. Terrific hitter. Wish it could have worked out. But a very bad influence on the younger guys on this team which is just about everyone. And lest we forget, before this ownership group came in, we went 86 years without a title. We have won 4 in the last 21 years. I think Henry didn't want to spend good money after bad. The Sox have build up their farm system and I think he will spend money to get the team over the top in the next few years. The ownership group flew to K.C. to try to make things right with Devers. Sometimes things don't work out. [/QUOTE]
