The Giants have officially slotted Rafael Devers into their lineup as the designated hitter, batting third in his debut. Manager Bob Melvin shared the news ahead of Tuesday’s game, hinting that while Devers won’t be limited to DH duties forever, this role lets him ease into the team’s rhythm.

Editor’s Note: For Giants fans, this is a big deal—Devers is a powerhouse bat, and seeing him in the heart of the order signals the team’s commitment to boosting their offense. It’s also a smart move to let him acclimate before possibly shifting him to the field. Baseball nerds will be watching closely to see how this shakes up the Giants’ season.
