Posey’s bold, brash, and perhaps even reckless trade for three-time All-Star slugger Rafael Devers on Sunday is a big black-and-orange stamp from the new director of baseball operations on the Giants organization.

The San Francisco Giants pulled off the most shocking trade of the Major League Baseball season on Sunday night, obtaining three-time All-Star slugger Rafael Devers from the Boston Red Sox as part of a five-player swap.

Rafael Devers was not pleased with the Boston Red Sox when they asked him to move to designated hitter after acquiring third baseman Alex Bregman in the offseason, and he flat-out refused to play at first base for the team.
