Giants begin search for new manager, focusing on internal candidates

San Francisco Giants president Farhan Zaidi is interviewing internal candidates this week to replace fired manager Gabe Kapler.
Zaidi is relying on input from Buster Posey and plans to reach out to other teams to interview additional candidates.
The managerial search is Zaidi's current priority, not his own contract negotiations.
Despite a losing 2022 season, Zaidi believes the manager job is highly desirable.
The Giants seek a new leader after unexpectedly finishing 81-81 this year following a franchise-record 107 wins in 2021.
