Rafael Devers is about to face the Red Sox for the first time since the trade, and the timing could not be more dramatic. Just five days after the deal, he takes the field against his former team in San Francisco. In this episode, we explore what this moment means for Devers, how the Red Sox should approach it, and who has the upper hand in this weekend’s matchups.

We discuss the short- and long-term implications of the trade, what it says about the Red Sox as a franchise, and how the team plans to fill the gap at DH. With a huge Red Sox vs Giants series on deck, we also highlight the players who need to step up and how young stars like Marcelo Mayer and Roman Anthony can make an impact.

In Worcester Watch, J.P. Ricciardi breaks down what fans can expect from the return package for Devers, including Jordan Hicks, Kyle Harrison, James Tibbs III, and Jose Bello. Plus, Kristian Campbell has been optioned to Triple-A and we take a closer look at what that means for his development and future role.

All that and more on the latest episode of 310 To Left presented by your New England Ford Dealers. Hosted by Travis Thomas and J.P. Ricciardi.
