The Rafael Devers trade might have rankled some Red Sox fans, but one MLB insider gave Boston an "A+" for dealing him.

Since being dealt to the Giants, Devers has demonstrated a willingness to play anywhere, including some places he initially did not want to with the Red Sox. According to former MLB player Cameron Maybin, communication was the key to getting Devers to be more flexible position-wise.

The Boston Red Sox’s starting lineup looks different than it did a little over a week ago. Boston obviously traded Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants. The move came as a shock and initially most of the buzz was negative.
