Devers&#8217; remarks generated the wrong kind of buzz and led to even worse comments from first baseman Triston Casas.<\/p>\n<p>Chief baseball officer Craig Breslow addressed the situation during a recent conversation with MassLive&#8217;s Sean McAdam.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These things tend to have a way of working themselves out,&#8221; Breslow told McAdam. &#8220;This is not the first situation where a player&#8217;s been outspoken about something that they take a lot of pride in. And that&#8217;s OK.
