Rafael Devers’ first full season with the San Francisco Giants has come to an abrupt end after he spent much of the year playing through an injury.

The Giants placed their star first baseman on the 60-day Injured List on Sunday because of an injured core muscle.

The move officially ends Devers’ season.

Surgery is likely to take place in the coming days, although Devers will first meet with doctors for a consultation today.

San Francisco recalled outfielder Scott Bandura from Triple-A Sacramento to replace Devers on the roster.

Devers reportedly dealt with the core issue for much of the season but elected to continue playing despite the discomfort.

The injury ultimately ended what had been a productive season for the 29-year-old.

Devers is a three-time All-Star and two-time Silver Slugger who helped the Boston Red Sox win the 2018 World Series.

Even while managing the injury, he finished with 98 RBIs, 37 home runs and an MLB-leading 36 doubles while hitting .258 in 148 games.

His 37 home runs represented the second-highest total of his career.

Devers established his career high with 38 home runs in 158 games for the Red Sox during the 2021 season.

His power production also placed him alongside some of the most accomplished hitters in Giants history.

Devers became the first San Francisco player to reach at least 31 home runs since Barry Bonds hit 45 in 2004.

Willy Adames had come closest last season, hitting 30 in 160 games to become the first Giant with a 30-home-run season since Bonds.

Devers also became one of only 15 players in franchise history to produce a 35-home run season.

That group includes Bonds, Willie Mays, Willie McCovey, Orlando Cepeda, Mel Ott, Johnny Mize, Jeff Kent, Bobby Bonds, Will Clark and Matt Williams.

Devers had recently been used as the designated hitter while managing his physical condition.

He finishes the season with 100 appearances at first base and 48 at DH.

Devers provides more than home-run power. His bat speed allows him to turn around velocity, while his strength gives him the ability to drive pitches even when he does not make perfect contact.

He can damage mistakes throughout the strike zone and has enough natural power to change a game with one swing.

Devers also brings an aggressive mentality without being completely dependent on attacking the first hittable pitch he sees.

When locked in, he can work through an at-bat, force pitchers to adjust and punish them when they eventually make a mistake.

His willingness to play through the core injury also demonstrated his competitiveness and desire to remain available.

That toughness, however, eventually reached its limit.

The Giants must now hope the expected treatment allows Devers to recover fully after an impressive season produced while dealing with an injury for much of what has been a tough year for the team.
