Only a Bean Counter Would Worry About the Money SF Giants Are Paying Rafael Devers

  • The San Francisco Giants acquired third baseman Rafael Devers in a trade Sunday night, assuming his 10-year, $313.5 million contract through 2033.
  • The trade aimed to bolster the Giants’ offense amid mounting injuries, with Bob Melvin managing Devers’ uncertain defensive role this season.
  • Devers, hitting.271/.400/.494 with 14 homers and 2.2 WAR in 2025, provides a left-handed power bat that allows patience with struggling prospect Bryce Eldridge.
  • Buster Posey, Giants president of baseball operations, stated, “I think that's a conversation that we're going to have to have with him,” about Devers’ future position.
  • Posey’s front office plans to invest aggressively to supplement the roster and pursue a playoff spot, confident the team can afford Devers’ contract long term.
