Rafael Devers went 3-for-4 in the Red Sox's 8-0 victory over the Guardians with a home run, a double, two runs scored, and two RBI.

Fantasy Impact

This standout performance could be a turning point for Devers, who has struggled with a .231 batting average over the early part of the season. His ability to connect for extra-base hits in this game, including his third homer of the year, offers a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers. Considering the amount of games he has missed recently, this was a welcome sight for fantasy managers.

Rafael Devers is back in the Red Sox lineup Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Devers has appeared in just three of the last 12 games due to a bone bruise and shoulder injury. He will return to the lineup as the designated hitter and bat second against the Guardians.

Rafael Devers (back) could return to the lineup Tuesday, per manager Alex Cora.

Fantasy Impact

Devers has not played since Wednesday and will not be in the lineup against the Pirates on Sunday. The team does not play Monday, so the hope is that the extra time will have Devers healed up enough to play Tuesday.

Rafael Devers is out of the lineup Friday due to a knee injury.

Fantasy Impact

The team does not expect that Devers will require a trip to the IL for the bone bruise on his left knee. Bobby Dalbec will draw the start at third base Friday.

Rafael Devers is considered day-to-day after undergoing an MRI that showed a bone bruise.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said he doesn't think it will require an IL stint. Devers will likely be sidelined for at least a few more days.
