Red Sox fans who bought Rafael Devers jersey recently may be able to trade it in. Here's how.

CBS News5 hours ago

The Boston Red Sox sent star designated hitter Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants just hours after he hit a home run against the rival New York Yankees on Sunday. Some fans undoubtedly bought a Rafael Devers jersey during the Sox series sweep of the Yanks. Now, what do those fans do?
"I did I once buy an Adrian Gonzalez jersey, and proudly wore it for one day, and he got traded. At the same time, my daughter bought a Carl Crawford jersey, and he was shortly thereafter traded," said Steve Shapiro, a Red Sox fan from New Jersey. "If I had bought a Rafael Devers jersey then I would gladly return it at this point because he wasn't willing to cooperate with the team."
Jersey Assurance policy
It turns out, MLBshop.com has a jersey assurance policy. If you buy a jersey, and a player is traded within 90 days of buying it, you can make a claim within 14 days of the trade. This doesn't apply if the player is cut, retired, suspended, injured, or incarcerated.
"I am learning about it now, and it's a good thing to know," said Shapiro.
After sending in your outdated Devers jersey, they will let you either choose the jersey of a different player on the Red Sox or send you a Devers jersey in his new Giants threads.

"I had a coworker who just last week bought a Rafael Devers jersey phone case," said Red Sox fan Aidan Fink. "He also said his past two dogs were named Lester and Bogey. There is something cursed about Boston fans."
While it may be tough to teach the dogs new names, those fans with outdated home jerseys may have a leg up. They don't have names on the back.
"The one jersey I have a is a Xander Bogaerts jersey with a '2' and no name on the back. I guess I could translate that to an Alex Bregman jersey right now," laughed Fink.
Here's to hoping the Sox sign a new number 11.

Panthers prove too slick for Oilers, defend NHL title

The Florida Panthers have repeated as Stanley Cup champions by beating the Edmonton Oilers 5-1 in Game 6 of the final, becoming the NHL's first back-to-back winners since Tampa Bay in 2020 and '21 and the third team to do it this century. Sam Reinhart scored four goals, becoming just the fourth player in league history to get that many in a game in the final. His third to complete the hat-trick sent rats, along with hats, flying onto the ice. Matthew Tkachuk, one of the faces of the franchise, fittingly scored the Cup clincher on Tuesday night. At the other end of the ice, Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 28 of the 29 shots he faced. The visitors' only goal came from fellow Russian Vasily Podkolzin in garbage time, long after the outcome was decided. How we feelin', @FlaPanthers fans?! 😼 #StanleyCup — NHL (@NHL) June 18, 2025 Not long after the Lightning made three trips to the final in a row, Florida have done the same and now have the makings of a modern-day dynasty. The Panthers have won 11 of 12 playoff series since Matthew Tkachuk arrived by trade and Paul Maurice took over as coach in the summer of 2022. Stuart Skinner got the nod in Game 6 and was again done in by mistakes in front of him that ended with the puck in the net behind him and had his own blunder on Reinhart's second goal. Connor McDavid tried to take over but was again stymied by Aleksander Barkov, Seth Jones and Bobrovsky. He finished with seven points in his second career trip to the final, again denied his first title. Canada's Stanley Cup drought reached 31 seasons and 32 years dating to Montreal in 1993. Teams in the US Sun Belt have won it five of the past six times, four of them in Florida. This run through Tampa Bay in five, Toronto in seven, Carolina in five and Edmonton in six showed how clinical the Panthers have become under Maurice, who has coached more NHL games than everyone except Scotty Bowman, and is now a two-time champion.

Former NFL All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman was formally charged with DUI in connection to his February 2024 arrest, according to an ESPN report. Sherman was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and booked into the King County Correctional Facility in Seattle in the early morning of Feb. 24, 2024, according to jail records previously obtained by USA TODAY Sports. Advertisement Citing the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office, ESPN reported officials had been awaiting blood-test results from the Washington State Patrol Crime Lab taken the night of the arrest. It was received June 16, which showed Sherman had a blood alcohol level around 0.11, higher than the state's legal limit of 0.08. "Thursday Night Football" analyst Richard Sherman talks during a pregame show before a game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders at Lincoln Financial Field on Nov. 14, 2024. Richard Sherman DUI arrest details According to documents, Sherman was pulled over just before 2 a.m. local time after a Washington State Patrol officer reported he was driving above the speed limit and veering on a highway in Renton, about 12 miles southeast of Seattle. Officers reportedly noticed an "odor of intoxicants" from Sherman's breath. He allegedly refused a breath test at the scene and was taken to a hospital for a blood draw before he was booked. Advertisement The DUI charge is a gross misdemeanor charge, ESPN said, and it includes an enhancement for refusing a breath test. Sherman will be arraigned June 30.

Police said Sherman crashed his SUV in a construction zone and tried to break into his in-laws' home. He pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor charges of first-degree negligent driving and second-degree criminal trespass related to the incident in a plea bargain in March 2022. A five-time Pro Bowler, Sherman played 11 seasons in the NFL. Seven of those seasons were spent with the Seattle Seahawks, as he was part of the famed "Legion of Boom" unit that anchored one of the top defenses in the league. He was a major contributor on the 2013 team that won Super Bowl 48. He currently serves as an analyst for Prime Video's "Thursday Night Football."

Rockets Make Bold Trade Offer for Kevin Durant, but Suns Reject Key Piece

Rockets Make Bold Trade Offer for Kevin Durant, but Suns Reject Key Piece originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Phoenix Suns are currently undergoing drastic changes at almost every level of their organization. Right after the conclusion of the regular season, the Suns fired head coach Mike Budenholzer after a disappointing 36-46 season. Shortly after, they made a rather shocking decision to move James Jones into a senior advisory role and Brian Gregory as the new general manager. Advertisement There were rumors at this past trade deadline that the Suns were actively shopping Durant and that they were close to a deal with the Golden State Warriors, but Durant wasn't intrigued by the reunion and asked the Suns they reconsider. The Suns opted to make one final push for a spot in the NBA Play-In Tournament, but Durant suffered a left ankle sprain and those hopes were dashed. Credit: Joe Camporeale-Imagn Images Rockets make bold Kevin Durant trade offer, Suns reject key piece There has been wide speculation as to which team(s) are possible suitors for Durant. One team that has been thrown around is the Houston Rockets. Of all the teams rumored to be in the mix, the Rockets can likely offer the Suns one of the better, if not the best, packages in exchange for the 15-time All-Star. Advertisement According to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM Phoenix, the Rockets have made a significant offer for Durant, but the Suns rejected a key piece. "The Rockets have offered Jalen Green and Jabari Smith for Kevin Durant but the Suns don't want Jalen Green," said Gambadoro. It could be argued that, of any player throughout the NBA Playoffs, Jalen Green's stock took a hit more than anybody. After averaging 21 points per game in the regular season, he averaged 13.28 per game in the seven-game series against the Golden State Warriors. That number is misleading. Green exploded for 38 points in Game 2, but was held under 15 points in the other six games and scored in the single digits four times. His style of play alongside Devin Booker and Bradley Beal would be questionable at best. It remains to be seen if the Suns have their eyes on a different player or are eying more draft compensation.
