Dominican · Framingham, USA · Born 10 October 1993Dominican third baseman for the Boston Red Sox, known for his powerful hitting and clutch performances in key moments including the 2018 World Series.
Rafael Devers is the Boston Red Sox's powerful third baseman and one of the AL's most dangerous hitters. His exceptional bat speed, natural hitting ability, and developing patience at the plate have produced multiple seasons of 30-plus home runs. His commitment to remaining a Red Sox and his consistent production make him a cornerstone of Boston's future. Devers was traded from Boston to the San Francisco Giants in June 2025 after a public dispute over a forced position change, ending his tenure as the last remaining player from the Red Sox's 2018 World Series title team and bringing to a close his long-stated commitment to the franchise. He moved to first base with the Giants, and the trade remains one of the most scrutinised in recent MLB history given the money involved on both sides.
