@Silencio - is this you?
From reddit: "My first baseball game with my dad. The Kruk and Kuip jerseys I ordered didn’t come in time before I flew out, so I had to make some the night before my flight. Friday 09/26/2025. I just about cried when I saw the park in person! I grew up going to Dodger Stadium as a Giants fan. What an amazing night and an amazing game!"
I LOVE THESE JERSEYS!

I'd like to think they're both wiser than to believe that a return as manager would be a good idea, for either party.
However, Bochy has an offer to remain with Texas as part of the front office, and I have little doubt that SF would also make the same offer.
Nah. My first Giants game was in 1980. McCovey went yard in the first inning and took about 15 minutes rounding the bases on his creaky knees. Poor guy had to retire mid-season.
Was glad to see Chapman wander in and slam the door on them. Made my day!
Snitker steps down as the Braves manager.
Can't say that I'm surprised, he mishandled a number of issues this season. The latter portion of the season was better they largely dug themselves into a huge hole. I'm sure it was one of those situations where the front office made him an offer he couldn't refuse, i.e., leave gracefully or be fired.

That said, it definitely had a different feel when there weren't so many other teams...
He would be a daring choice, going against the kind of thinking gets old, experienced baseball hands, like Melvin, hired.
Posey has come out and poured water on the idea of Bochy returning as manager.
It's still early, and my guess is that they'll end up with someone like Kapler, but not as wacky of a person. Former player, younger, but someone with baseball smarts beyond their years.
Want to hear a crazy thought from a Cardinals fan?
Yadier Molina.
He's smart, knows pitchers and is looking for a greater role in an MLB dugout. As former catchers, Posey and Molina respect (as far as I've heard, anyway) and know each other from facing off against one another and would share a similar headspace. It would admittedly be a bold move as Yadi is fairly inexperienced, but it would certainly make a splash!
It's been brought up on the GIANTS reddit board... I wouldn't hate that option.
Vitello is my first choice...
I just realized that the WC round stays in one city for all 3 games!
GO PHILLIES!

It often goes unnoticed, but catchers are the "QBs" of baseball, and must have the smarts to run the team from the field.
Yeah, that was disappointing. Both of my teams are now sitting home watching the postseason along with me. I'm pulling for all teams not named Yankees and Dodgers.
Go Cubs! They finished 5 games behind the Brewers, but won the season series between them. I'm not sure why there is such a wide margin in betting on these two. There will be almost as many Cubs fans at the games in Milwaukee as Brewers fans as is always the case. Brewers fans don't travel as well to Chicago.
A Mariners/Brewers World Series would guarantee a first-time winner. That would be an interesting series to watch.
They played in the series against the Cardinals in '82 (back when they were an AL team) but lost.
