Manny Ramirez shockingly uses Aaron Judge reference to rip Red Soxs Rafael Devers trade

The Yankees and Red Sox have become renewed trade partners in recent years, and now, Boston legends are pointing to the Bronx Bombers as a way of doing business.In the latest chapter of “the rivalry isn’t what it was 20-plus years ago,” Red Sox great Manny Ramirez used Yankees captain Aaron Judge as a reference point to drive home why he felt the Red Sox mishandled the growing tension with Rafael Devers before sending him to San Francisco in a blockbuster move Sunday.“Devers was humiliated (by the Red Sox).It’s not about pride or ego.

I’m telling you this because I really wasn’t well, and David [Ortiz] and Pedro [Martinez] were fighting with me to advise me,” Ramirez told Gomez.“But I was so bad, that I never let them advise me.

And David Ortiz, look how he’s come out on top in Boston.He let himself be advised.

Most Latinos don’t come out on good terms with their teams.”The drama between the Red Sox and Devers hit a turning point when the team signed Alex Bregman to play his position and then wanted him to move to first base, which he refused.Devers settled into his designated hitter role before the team again wanted him to go to first base due to Triston Casas’ season...
