Rafael Devers Fantasy Stats

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers (hamstring) is still feeling something in his left hamstring, which is why he's serving as the designated hitter again on Friday at Oracle Park against the visiting New York Yankees, according to John Shea of The San Francisco Standard. Manager Tony Vitello said that Devers could play first if necessary. "Still a little bit of a feeling in there," Vitello said. Devers is the DH and is batting third on Friday against Yankees right-hander Cam Schlittler, while infielder Casey Schmitt will make another start at first base and bat seventh for the Gigantes. The 29-year-old Devers dealt with a balky hammy in late February during spring training, but it's obviously not a very serious injury since he remains in the starting lineup. Devers went 1-for-4 in the 7-0 Opening Day loss to New York on Wednesday night. Fantasy managers will want to keep him in their lineups as the Giants try for their first win of the 2026 season.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers (hamstring) is back in the Cactus League lineup on Monday as the designated hitter against the Los Angeles Angels after missing some time recently in spring training with hamstring tightness, according to Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports. Devers is batting leadoff for the Giants. Barring another setback with his hamstring, Devers should be totally fine for Opening Day later this month. The 29-year-old is still searching for his first hit in spring training after going hitless in his first nine Cactus League plate appearances. The Dominican infielder and three-time All-Star was traded from the Boston Red Sox to the Giants last year and finished with a .252/.372/.479 slash line, .851 OPS, 35 home runs, 109 RBI, and 99 runs scored in 163 total games. Twenty of his 35 homers came with the Gigantes. Although he's in a pitcher-friendly park, Devers should be considered a top-10 fantasy first baseman.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers (hamstring) is progressing well and could make his return to Cactus League action in spring training next week, according to Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News. As a precaution, the Giants recently shut Devers down from all baseball activities after he reported tightness in his hamstring late last month. Barring a setback, the 29-year-old left-handed hitter should be just fine for Opening Day later this month. The three-time All-Star had a falling out with the Boston Red Sox last year and was traded to the Giants, where he finished with a .236/.347/.460 slash line, .807 OPS, 20 home runs, 51 RBI, and 52 runs scored in 90 games. Devers clubbed 35 homers and drove in 109 runs overall in 163 games, and although he's not in a favorable hitter's park, he gives fantasy managers a solid floor. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 7 fantasy first baseman.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers (hamstring) told Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle that he's feeling much better. "I feel good!" Devers said. He's unsure if he'll be able to play in the team's next Cactus League game on Friday, but this weekend might be more likely for a return. The 29-year-old left-handed hitter was scratched from the spring training lineup last Friday with a hamstring injury and was also shut down from all baseball activities. Devers will still be considered day-to-day until he gets back on the field, but it sounds like he dodged a bullet and should be ready for Opening Day in late March. The three-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger hit only .236/.347/.460 in 90 games for the Giants after being acquired in a trade with Boston, but he still finished with 35 homers and 109 RBI in 163 games played. Devers will be playing a full season in one of the more pitcher-friendly parks in baseball, but he's still a top-10 fantasy first baseman with a solid bat and safe floor.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers (hamstring) is being withheld from all activity for the next two to four days due to left-hamstring tightness, according to Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News. The Giants scratched Devers from the Cactus League game on Friday, and now they will hold him out for a few more days as a precaution. The 29-year-old left-handed hitter should have time to get ready for Opening Day in late March, but only if he doesn't have any further setbacks once he returns to baseball activities. If he were to land on the injured list for the start of the 2026 regular season, first base prospect Bryce Eldridge would likely start at first base. Devers will have a full season at a very pitcher-friendly ballpark in 2026 in San Fran, but he still has a pretty solid floor as a top-10 fantasy first baseman. The three-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger managed 35 homers with Boston and the Giants in 2025.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers (hamstring) was scratched from Friday's Cactus League game against the Los Angeles Dodgers due to a tight left hamstring, according to Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News. For now, Devers will be considered day-to-day until we know more about the severity of his injury. If it ends up being something more serious, young first baseman Bryce Eldridge would handle everyday duties at the cold corner in San Fran to open up the 2026 season. The 29-year-old Dominican was traded to the Giants last year, and although he hit 20 homers in the Bay Area in 90 games played, he hit just .236 (79-for-335) with 116 K's and 56 walks. Overall, Devers had a .252/.372/.479 slash line, .851 OPS, 35 homers, and 109 RBI in 163 games played. A full season in a pitcher-friendly park in San Fran isn't ideal, but Devers is still a pretty solid option at first base with a high floor after the elite names come off the board.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers was the center of many storylines during the 2025 season. Despite dealing with plenty of outside noise and enduring a midseason trade across the country, Devers remained one of the best power hitters in baseball while flashing solid discipline. Across 163 games split between Boston and San Francisco, Devers slashed .252/.372/.479 with 35 home runs, 109 RBI, and 135 wRC+. He also walked at a career-best 15.4% clip. While he posted at least 24 fWAR at the plate for the fourth time in the last seven years, his defense was far less impressive. He was primarily a designated hitter in 2025, but he did make 29 appearances at first base, posting -1 OAA, -1 FRV, and -16.8 fWAR there. Fortunately for fantasy managers, the jolt of the bat impacts his value far more than the glove. His raw power and ability to get on base vault him to #7 in the latest RotoBaller fantasy baseball rankings for first basemen.

San Francisco Giants first baseman/designated hitter Rafael Devers added to his home run total in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Cardinals. Devers went 1-for-3 with a solo HR and a walk. The 28-year-old lined a fifth-inning Michael McGreevy fastball over the left-center wall for his 33rd long ball of the season. Despite a couple of prolonged slumps, Devers has still provided solid fantasy value, compiling a .252/.371/.473 slash line with 95 runs scored and 106 RBI in 706 plate appearances. His batting average did dip while his strikeout rate jumped to 26.3%, but he should still be a high-end source of power for 2026.

San Francisco Giants third baseman Rafael Devers came alive at the plate during Sunday's game against the New York Mets. His biggest hit of the game came in the form of a three-run home run off right-hander Frankie Montas in the third inning. He continued to have fun with an RBI single in the fourth inning as well. Devers finished this game 3-for-4 with a homer, four RBI, two runs scored, and a walk in the win. It hasn't been a great start to his career in San Francisco, but maybe this is a sign of good things to come.

San Francisco Giants infielder/designated hitter Rafael Devers is making his first career start at first base and will bat third in the order on Tuesday against the hosting Atlanta Braves and right-hander Davis Daniel at Truist Park. After refusing to play first base in Boston after the season-ending injury to Triston Casas (knee), Devers was traded to the Giants in the first half and immediately said he'd be willing to work out at the cold corner. In fact, this is also the first time that the 28-year-old will play the field in 2025 after serving as a full-time DH for his first 102 starts of the season. His fantasy managers will just be hoping that the Dominican can get going at the plate on Tuesday. Since joining the Gigantes, the three-time All-Star has hit just .219 (23-for-105) with two home runs, 10 RBI and 10 runs scored in 29 games played.
