Rafael Devers to Undergo Core Surgery
Rafael Devers is scheduled to undergo left-side core surgery on Tuesday, according to an announcement from the Giants. The team will share a recovery timeline following the procedure.
Devers was recently shut down for the season after having played every game until September 9. Despite experiencing core discomfort throughout the season, he finished with a .258 batting average and 22 home runs, ranking among the top hitters in the league since July.
His performance is notable given the injury, as he recorded 37 home runs this season, the highest for a Giants player since Barry Bonds in 2004. Devers, alongside Bryce Eldridge, has been a standout for the Giants during a challenging season marked by numerous injuries within the team.
