Episode #307: The World Series That No One and Everyone Wanted Preview

Did we really need this matchup?

Look. Many Giants and fans of other franchises did not want to see Dodgers and Yankees. Chad certainly doesn’t. He’s rooting for a cancelation of the World Series. But, even though Eric and Willie would never want the Dodgers to win, they are intrigued by the superstar spectacle that this is. It’s a far cry from last year’s small market, wild card World Series between Arizona and Texas. In their 12th meeting in the World Series (5 ahead of the Yankees and Giants), and their first Fall Classic together since 1981, the Yankees and Dodgers square off in a Fox wet dream. Between the US and Japan viewership, this could be the most watched World Series in a decade or more. The boys make their picks, lament about Bay Area sports in general, and wrap it up with a little Giants’ news (3 Gold Glove finalists!). We’ll be back to review the World Series and get into the hot stove season with Buster Posey commanding the ship.

Episode #306: President Posey

Buster Posey appears at the Giants’ press conference that introduced him as the Giants’ new President of Baseball Operations on October 1, 2024.

The “Fire Farhan” brigade got their wish, but his replacement was a bit of a surprise. Buster Posey was named President of Baseball Operations of the San Francisco Giants. It’s not often that a franchise icon gets a chance to run their team, but if anyone can succeed, it’s Buster Posey. He was introduced Tuesday at Oracle Park and he promised to please the fans and players and get back to what San Francisco Giants’ baseball is all about. This man appears to care deeply about this team, and is somewhat putting his reputation on the line. A few call this move desperate, but it seems that most Giants fans are 100% behind this move. I mean, could it be worse than Farhan? One playoff appearance and one winning record in 6 years suggests not. Farhan’s time ran out. Maybe he was given too much rope as it is. Chad and Eric talk about this monumental decision in Giants history and the potential good and bad ramifications it could have on the franchise (we think mostly good!).
