Rockies Pitcher Explains Why Punches Were Thrown After Rafael Devers's Home Run

San Francisco and Colorado opened with a heated scene as Kyle Freeland challenged Rafael Devers after a first-inning homer, triggering a benches-clearing moment. Freeland was ejected without recording an out, Devers stayed in, and the Giants rode late offense to a 7-4 win. Freeland called the celebration disrespectful; Devers said he did nothing different, and Logan Webb backed his teammate, fueling the ongoing unwritten-rules debate surrounding showmanship in MLB.

In DFS and season-long leagues, how should Rafael Devers's involvement in this incident affect his short-term fantasy outlook?Does Kyle Freeland's early ejection change how you project his next start or overall fantasy value this season?What does Logan Webb's stance suggest about Giants team culture and potential fantasy implications for his own starts?Should bettors and fantasy players view this brawl as a signal for future Giants-Rockies matchups, and how could you exploit it in the coming weeks?
