Giants Acquire Rafael Devers, Confirm No First Base Role Against Red Sox
The recent trade of Rafael Devers from the Boston Red Sox to the San Francisco Giants has added significant intrigue to the upcoming three-game series between the two teams. Devers, a powerful slugger, was traded in part due to a disagreement over his unwillingness to play first base for the Red Sox after an injury to Triston Casas, a position he is open to playing with the Giants. Despite this, Giants manager Bob Melvin confirmed Devers will not play first base during the Red Sox series, as the team feels he needs more time to prepare for the position. Since joining San Francisco, Devers has appeared only as a designated hitter but is expected to eventually take the field at first base once ready. The trade represents a bold move by the Giants to boost their lineup immediately, although it came at the cost of promising young talent. Both teams are eager to make an impact with the series, with the Red Sox aiming to climb the American League East standings and the Giants vying to catch the Dodgers in the National League West.
