The Red Sox recently made an extension offer to star third baseman Rafael Devers but a deal is unlikely to come together before Opening Day, a baseball source said Wednesday afternoon. The sides were described as being “very far off” in negotiations.

Héctor Gómez of Z Deportes first reported the offer, noting that Devers rejected because “it was lower than he is willing to consider.” Devers has said he doesn’t want to talk about a long-term deal once the regular season begins; a source said it’s doubtful that further talks occur before Opening Day (Friday).
