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.

Devers was frustrated with Red Sox management for taking away his position at third base, then asking him to play first after an injury to Triston Casas.
