Heads start rolling
This being the Giants, where loyalty is generally rewarded, the heads rolled upstairs instead of out in the street. But we had to know there would be a shake-up. I suppose the biggest question of all is the manager. At some point Bochy will trade in his cap and cleats but I think that’s still a year or two away. There’s no clear heir apparent despite my belief that they are grooming Jose Alguacil; maybe we’ll have a better idea when the dust settles.
Dave Righetti and Mark Gardner move out of the dugout and bullpen and into the front office. Steve Decker (assistant hitting coach) joins the growing club of “special assistants.” I saw a rumor about Chili Davis returning to the organization, and Hensley Muelens being on the block. David Bell returns in a player development capacity, replacing Shane Turner who gets an apparent promotion. (I don’t claim to understand the corporate food chain. Cool job titles, though.)
It should be fun to see who gets picked for the new openings: will it be advancement from within or fresh talent from outside?
–M.C.
p.s. Hats off to Rags–18 seasons (and three managers) is a hell of a run.
***UPDATE: looks like I missed some key facts, Ron Wotus and Hensley Muelens were also both re-assigned. That makes five vacancies.
