The San Francisco Giants completely changed the course of their season with a stunning trade for Rafael Devers.
Rafael Devers has been formally introduced by the Giants, days after being traded to San Francisco by the Boston Red Sox.
The Boston Red Sox thought they would be better off with a happy clubhouse than a disgruntled Rafael Devers. A day after trading their erstwhile third baseman to the San Francisco Giants, Red Sox President Sam Kennedy told reporters that Devers’ refusal to change positions made it untenable for him to remain with the team.
