Buster Posey and the Giants hired a general manager! Zack Minasian (his brother is also the GM of the Angles, btw) has spent six years with the Giants and prior to that, was with the Brewers organization for 15 years. He grew up in the Rangers’ clubhouse, as his dad was a clubhouse attendant. In his teens, Zack realized that he wasn’t going to make it as baseball player and set his sights on the front office. Well, he’s arrived. Randy Winn was also named VP of player development. We’ll see if positions come up for JT Snow and Rich Aurilia. Patrick Bailey and Matt Chapman won Gold Gloves. It’s Bailey’s first, Chapman’s fifth, and it’s the first time the Giants have had two or more Gold Glove winners since Crawford, Panik, and Posey in 2016. Notice how we didn’t mention the Dodgers? Wait, what?
