Giants Fire Farhan Zaidi, Name Seven-Time All-Star Buster Posey New President of Baseball Operations
Sep 30, 2024, 05:08 PM
The San Francisco Giants have announced a significant leadership change, parting ways with Farhan Zaidi, their President of Baseball Operations, after six years. Zaidi, who struggled to achieve a winning record in five out of six seasons, will be replaced by Buster Posey, a former Giants catcher and seven-time All-Star. Posey's appointment, anticipated within the Giants' organization for months, is notable as he is also on the Giants' board of directors. Known for his deep understanding of the game and strong respect within the baseball community, Posey's transition from player to executive, just three years after retiring, marks a new era for the Giants. This change was confirmed by Jeff Passan.
