During his introductory news conference with the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday, Rafael Devers declared something in Spanish that the Boston Red Sox wished they could have heard from one of the game's elite hitters.
The deal also included outfielder James Tibbs III, last year’s first-round selection, and 20-year-old right-hander Jose Bello. Despite Devers’ talents, the Giants kept Bryce Eldridge, their top overall prospect, and left-hander Carson Whisenhunt, their top pitching prospect.
