Devers was introduced alongside Giants legend and president of baseball operations Buster Posey, and with Barry Bonds in attendance.

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.

Friends, we gather here today to mourn the passing of the "Break-Even Ball" era of the San Francisco Giants. It lasted the better part of a decade, a disenfranchising malaise of sound financial decisions and bore-inducing transactions designed to make the most fiscal sense for Giants ownership at the expense of the on-field product.

"A little bit of DH and a little bit of first base,” Giants manager Bob Melvin said about Devers's role with the team.

First-year president of baseball operations Buster Posey tried patience and positive reinforcement, but as the Giants’ offensive struggles reached their third week unabated, it was undeniable that San Francisco’s clubhouse had become just a bit too comfortable with not scoring runs.

Rafael Devers has been formally introduced by the Giants, days after being traded to San Francisco by the Boston Red Sox.

The San Francisco Giants just made the first big trade of 2025, and they're hoping he's the key that finally unlocks their dormant offense.
