San Francisco Giants seek trades for high‑paid stars Devers, Adames and Chapman

The San Francisco Giants have confirmed they are open to offers for their three highest‑paid position players—third baseman Matt Chapman, outfielder Willy Adames and former Red Sox slugger Rafael Devers. Chapman carries a $100 million contract through 2030, while Devers is owed $211 million after the season. ESPN analysts estimate Chapman's chance of being moved before the deadline at roughly 25 percent and cite the Cardinals, A’s, Nationals, Brewers, Marlins, Phillies, Mets and Red Sox as potential suitors. The Giants, sitting at a 29‑43 record in the NL West, also list other candidates such as Luis Arraez and pitcher Robbie Ray. Devers, despite a dip in batting average, leads the league with 21 doubles and remains a valuable power hitter. The trade discussions reflect the club’s effort to shed large contracts amid a struggling season.
