Not only has Rafael Devers struggled since the Red Sox traded him to San Francisco on June 15, but the Giants also have played poorly.
Devers is batting .226 with a .746 OPS, while San Francisco, which was 10 games over .500 (41-31) at the time of the trade, has gone 22-37 with him and is now five games under .500 (63-68).
Below is a look at how Devers and all the players who the Red Sox have traded during the 2025 season are doing with their new teams.
Ex-Red Sox players traded during 2025 season:
Quinn Priester, Brewers: The 24-year-old righty is 11-2 with a 3.44 ERA, 4.36 FIP, 1.26 WHIP and .242 batting average against in 24 outings (19 starts).

He’s in the 23rd percentile in chase percentage (26.0%) while his groundball percentage (57.7%) is in the 96th percentile.
Boston traded Priester to Milwaukee on April 7 for prospects Yophery Rodriguez and John Holobetz as well as a competitive balance draft pick, which they used to take Tennessee righty Marcus Phillips 33rd overall in the 2025 MLB Draft.
