SI: Giants Enlist Former Dodgers GM Farhan Zaidi to Clean Up an Expensive, Aging Roster

[SportsGuy]

Saw this on Twitter:

Bruce Bochy said Madison Bumgarner texted him during the Winter Meetings after hearing that the Giants were considering using openers and said, “If you use an opener in my game, I’m walking out of the ballpark.”

As I saw someone (presumably a Royals fan) say on Twitter , he should've done that in Game Seven.

We are hearing Giants ownership/upper mgmt might not be on the same page as Zaidi regarding Harper. They want to offer a long term contract like they did with Bonds and Zaidi does NOT want to. Sabean/Baer step the F up, this is your team, not some slappy's from the Dodgers! @KNBR

Good for him to finally get his shot.

If Bruce Bochy decided to retire before his next game, he would have his years managed and career record both be 1995-2019

Tonight is Yastrzemski's first game at Fenway.

And he homered.

Kevin Gausman, 1 year, $9 million to the Giants. 

 

Good for him!

[You Play to Win the Game]

Good for Gaus. Not a bad place to spend a year of your life. I absolutely love that region. I'd move there in a heartbeat if it wasn't so impossibly expensive. This, coming from someone who lives in North Bethesda.

Agreed. 

 

Maybe that'll be the ballpark that revives him and he becomes the stud i expected him to be here.

Apparently there was other baseball news today. Less fun, but a hell of a lot more important.

I hope she is great.

Aubrey Huff really is a son of a bitch.

https://amp.tmz.com/...emale-hire-mlb/

"I got in trouble for wearing a thong in my own clubhouse when female reporters were present," Huff said. "Can’t imagine how it will play out with a full-time female coach running around. This has #metoo & #BelieveAllWomen written all over it."

Heaven forbid we may expect civility in professional locker rooms in the new century. What a horrible take.

[SportsGuy]

Huff had a picture/painting of his wife ha find over his bed.she was naked.

[Slidemaster]

I'll always remember Huff for his "Horseshit" comment.

Can't stand the guy. I'm surprised anyone is even asking him his opinion.
