Red Sox raise doxxing concerns to police after Rafael Devers trade, officials say
New York Yankees' manager Aaron Boone discussed Aaron Judge's greatness, then the "MLB on FOX" crew followed up with a discussion.
Boston Red Sox fans are apparently taking their frustrations out on social media after the Rafael Devers trade.
Shortly after the Sox completed a three-game sweep of their arch-rival New York Yankees, they sent Devers, who homered on Sunday over the Green Monster, to the San Francisco Giants.
The writing had been on the wall for some time after the Sox signed third baseman Alex Bregman, and eventually, Devers refused to play first base. Devers has only been a designated hitter all season.

However, despite the clear friction in the clubhouse, Devers was the face of the franchise and the last man standing from the 2018 World Series championship team, apparently leaving some Sox fans in dismay.
In the wake of trading Devers, Newton Police said they were made aware of reports that "some members of the Red Sox have been victims of doxxing on social media due to a recent trade."
Police told Fox News Digital in a statement that they were "notified by representatives from the Boston Red Sox Organization," but they are "not investigating any online threats."
The Red Sox did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
TMZ Sports first reported the doxxing.
