Devers' Slump: Giants Fans Worry

Rafael Divers joined the San Francisco Giants in a mid-20025 trade from the Boston Red Sox,

but it's been a rough ride so far for the 29-year-old slugger.

He's batting just 234 with only two home runs and nine runs batted in over the team's first 25 games.

The Giants are sitting at 11 wins and 14 losses, and Divers was supposed to be their main power thread.

He burst onto the scene with Boston back in 2017,

helped them win the World Series in 2018 and earned three all-star nods plus.

Two silver slugger awards, despite that solid resume, his short stay with San Francisco last year was shaky,

and this season it's even worse.

Fans in the Bay Area aren't thrilled, and honestly, they never warmed up to him like Boston did.

His defense at first base, and as the designated hitter has been sloppy,

with talks swirling that he's not putting in the effort to get better.

Lately, word as Divers has been dodging the media amid this slow start,

which isn't helping his rep at all.

Social media is buzzing with labels like lazy,

and avoiding reporters just fuels the fire on accountability.

If he flips the switch and starts crushing balls like old times,

the noise fades quick, but keeps slumping with a cold shoulder and his Giants days.

Might in sooner than planned.
