Rafael Devers' trade to the San Francisco Giants is increasingly seen as a positive move due to his impactful performance. Meanwhile, top prospect Bryce Eldridge is facing a setback with a right hamstring strain, sidelining him for 3-4 weeks. This disruption may delay his potential MLB debut until 2026. Additionally, the Giants are managing injuries to Matt Chapman, who is expected to return before the All-Star break, and Jerar Encarnación, who is currently in rehab and not projected to play in AAA soon.
Every day, the San Francisco Giants decision to trade for slugger Rafael Devers looks a little bit better. Devers has hit well, anchored the lineup, and fit right in.
Eldridge suffered a hamstring strain on Saturday when turning around second base following a double... he will rehab at the team's facility in Arizona for the next 3-4 weeks.
It's still quite possible that Eldridge makes his MLB debut this season, but those injuries might push him back to 2026.
The Giants are still hopeful that Chapman will return before the All-Star break, likely during the July 11-13 series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
