Hours after the Yankees were swept by the Red Sox at Fenway Park, Boston traded Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants.

The Rafael Devers trade was so sudden Sunday that the Yankees hadn’t even touched down from their flight home — the news broke to them at 30,000 feet.

Few people on Earth can relate to the Rafael Devers trade as well as Mookie Betts, but even he struggled to wrap his mind around it.

Yankees fans find joy after sweep thanks to Stanton activation and Devers trade originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It’s been a rough few days for Yankees fans. The weekend sweep in Boston was historic—in the worst kind of way. But Monday night brought something resembling momentum.

Boston's offense found a way to beat one of the best starters in baseball in its 2-0 win over New York on Sunday.
