Rafael Devers makes it clear that he will be working to improve at first base this spring and that he's comfortable now that he knows that's his position. #SFGiants

21-year-old Bryce Eldridge just hit his 13th home run of the season and is starting at first base for the third consecutive game. On a losing team that is supposed to be focusing on future development, the choice should be obvious: play Eldridge at first base for the rest of the season. At a towering 6'7", Eldridge brings an incredible athletic profile to first base. His massive frame already gives infielders a vast, elite target to throw to, and he is proving to be a much better, more agile defender than Devers. The best part? At 21, he has immense room to grow as a player. As he gets older and fills out his 6'7" frame, he is going to put on actual muscle weight, making him even stronger with even more scary power. Looking at the stats, Eldridge's recent strikeout rate uptick puts him at 26.7%—virtually identical to Devers’ 26.6%. The fact that a rookie learning the league is already matching the strikeout production of an established veteran tells you everything you need to know about his high ceiling. Meanwhile, Rafael Devers continues to prove he is a "me-first" player rather than a "team-first" guy. At this point in his career especially with the massive bag he is being paid, he is best suited as a full-time DH. If he refuses to accept that role and demands to play first base over a rising star, it completely cements his selfish attitude. A true team player and veteran leader would do whatever it takes to help SFGiants win and let the youth develop. Instead, Devers brings zero leadership, routinely fails to run out pop-ups, and exhibits the exact same toxic, malcontent attitude that wore out his welcome in Boston and caused the Red Sox to ship him out. It’s time for the SFGiants to stop catering to an overpaid, selfish veteran. Move Devers to full-time DH, let the young 6'7" powerhouse develop at first base, and commit to the future. #SFGiants
