[{ "selector": ".qmbgk-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "750ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".saqep-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(calc(360px - 335px)) rotate(580deg)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0) rotate(0deg)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".glaie-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-43px) rotate(-580deg)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0) rotate(0deg)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".pqukd-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-218px) rotate(-580deg)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0) rotate(0deg)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Rafael Devers and the Red Sox promptly turned their attention to a long-term contract extension after coming to a one-year agreement to avoid arbitration.

The Red Sox are reportedly signing Devers to an 11-year, $331 million deal, according to MLB source Bob Nightengale.

According to total value, Devers' contract is the sixth-largest in MLB history.

[{ "selector": ".pzozj-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".lufzk-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "2250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

According to ESPN insider Jeff Passan, Devers' long-term contract with Boston is still in the works. The gifted third baseman must clear his physical.

[{ "selector": ".ltkrr-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".bxkin-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "2250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Two-time All-Star Devers just completed a successful campaign with the Red Sox. Last season, he batted.295 with 27 home runs and 88 RBIs.

[{ "selector": ".aouwb-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".mtkue-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "2250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Fans of the Red Sox must be happy about this information.

The fan base has already witnessed the team lose Xander Bogaerts to free agency and Mookie Betts in a trade.

[{ "selector": ".lpigk-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".fxxwf-a", "duration": "250ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "2250ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

The Red Sox's public face for the foreseeable future will be 26-year-old Devers.
