## Resource

Giants manager Bob Melvin tried to pinch-run Rafael Devers with speedy Jonah Cox during Sunday’s game, but Devers waved him off—clearly not ready to exit. Melvin explained the move was meant to maximize their chances in a tight contest, citing Devers’ leg soreness, even though Cox’s goal was to score, not just reach second. The Giants’ next two batters struck out, sealing the loss. Despite the on-field tension, Melvin praised Devers as a competitive, entertaining teammate they talk to daily. Now, with the Giants reeling—six straight road losses, a distant playoff race, and Devers’ underwhelming season performance—rumors swirl about trading him. The Giants paid a steep price to acquire him, and his big contract through 2033 makes any deal complex, especially as they stare at a losing record and fading postseason hopes.
