The San Francisco Giants swung a major trade for a star infielder Sunday in a deal with the Boston Red Sox. According to Robert Murray of FanSided, the Red Sox are trading Rafael Devers to the Giants, ending a saga that began in spring training when Boston's front office moved Devers to designated hitter from third base.

The Giants' part of the deal reportedly includes pitchers Jordan Hicks and Kyle Harrison. Designated hitter Devers, 28, had bristled at his demotion from third base.
