Giants Fire Farhan Zaidi, Appoint Buster Posey as New President of Baseball Operations

Posey, a franchise legend, steps into leadership role after Zaidi's six-year tenure marked by inconsistent results.

  • Farhan Zaidi was dismissed as the Giants' president of baseball operations after six years with only one winning season.
  • Buster Posey, a former Giants star and three-time World Series champion, will now lead the team's baseball operations.
  • Posey previously joined the Giants' ownership in 2022 and played a key role in securing a contract extension for Matt Chapman.
  • Zaidi's tenure saw the Giants fail to secure top free agents and struggle with player development, despite a record 107-win season in 2021.
  • Posey faces the challenge of revitalizing a team that has been stuck in mediocrity and improving its farm system and player acquisitions.
