As if the NL West was not already difficult enough, news broke on Sunday that the San Francisco Giants acquired star infielder/DH Rafael Devers from the Boston Red Sox in exchange for LHP Kyle Harrison, RHP Jordan Hicks, OF James Tibbs and RHP Jose Bello. Why on earth did the Red Sox do this, and how good does it make the Giants? 

Meanwhile, the Diamondbacks won a crucial series over the San Diego Padres to improve their position in the NL wild card. We discuss Saturday's absurd D-backs comeback and other key moments from the series. Plus, the D-backs pitching staff continues to get hammered by season-ending elbow injuries, with Justin Martinez joining the fray and AJ Puk and Tommy Henry perhaps not far behind. 

Finally, we broke down some interesting comments from general manager Mike Hazen in a radio interview about his team's approach at the trade deadline. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers for a packed edition of Snakes Territory!
