Rafael Devers Is Done For The Year, And The Paperwork That Says So Is Also A Call-Up

San Francisco placed Rafael Devers on the 60-day injured list on Sunday with a core muscle injury, and the league's roster system carries his status as Injured 60-Day. With 13 games left on the schedule the designation ends his season by the calendar, whatever Monday's consultation with a Philadelphia specialist recommends. The club's 40-man roster held 40 of 40 before the move and 40 of 40 after it: the transaction that closed Devers's year is the transaction that made room for Scott Bandura, whose contract was selected from Sacramento the same day. Devers hit .258 with a .340 on-base percentage and a .525 slugging percentage across 148 games, with 37 home runs, 98 RBI and 36 doubles, which ties him with three other hitters for the major league lead. He homered in each of his last two games. He is the 16th man on this club's 60-day list and the second infielder it has moved there to end a season, after Matt Chapman in August. Seven contract years remain. One take filed at -160.
