3- GIANTS: 


A- BAGGS PIECE—- GIANTS ARE GOING TO ZIG A BIT WHILE OTHERS ZAG….




Minasian oversaw those staffing changes while executing Zaidi’s directives. On Tuesday, neither Minasian nor Posey were prepared to say whether any of those scouts would be hired back, or whether the department would ramp up staffing. Those conversations are ongoing, Minasian said.

But Posey considered Minasian’s scouting background a prerequisite when he elevated him to the GM role. And while other organizations like the Chicago Cubs are leaning harder into trusting predictive models when evaluating amateur and pro talent, Posey continues to signal that he believes data should be well tempered by professional scouting expertise.

“You have to measure what the information is telling you with scouts and what their years and years and years and years and years and years of evaluating players and what their eyes tell them,” Posey said. “There’s probably subtleties that they pick up, whether it’s on-field stuff or interactions that they see with the player and their parents or a player and their friends that maybe they can’t even articulate. But after seeing it for so many years, there’s something that they (recognize instantly) as either a good thing or a bad thing. I think that is really important when you’re talking about bringing a player to your system.”

And when there’s a quantitative case to be made?

“We’ve had these conversations already: whether it’s offensively or defensively, it’s trying to highlight three things, three points of data, offensively or defensively, and then be really good at those,” Posey said. “Sometimes when I’m sitting there listening, and these brilliant minds are going all over the place, I’ll think where I can be helpful for the group is just to shrink it in. Like, ‘OK, if these things are important for us, let’s go find those players.'”



The way I look at it, it’s people, you know?” Posey said. “Whether you’re a player or you’re this (president) role, you’re trying to get to know personalities, understand how to communicate with different people. As a catcher, you’ve got to know so many different personalities. So I think you take a little bit of that. It’s just life in general.”

Rangers special assistant Nick Hundley is another former catcher who used his experience behind the plate while transitioning to a front-office role. Hundley served as Posey’s backup in 2017-18 and is one of his closest friends in the game. They’ve spoken frequently over the past two months.

“It’s an unbelievable challenge, and on a much, much larger scale, it reminds me of calling a game,” Hundley said. “There’s a lot of different options and ways to attack problems. So he’s well suited for it. The biggest thing he has is vision. You can’t really teach that.

“I’m just ecstatic for the game of baseball. Anytime you keep leaders like him involved, it fills a huge void. When he retired, the game missed his talent and his personality and his aura, and I think it’s really exciting to have him back in the game in a really high-level decision-making capacity on one of the blue-chip franchises.”

But it’s one thing to go from former player to special assistant. Isn’t it a whole different challenge to ascend directly to an organization’s top baseball job?

“Oh, it is,” Hundley said with a laugh. “But so is winning MVPs and winning World Series and being a Hall of Famer.”

Between Posey and Young and Boston’s Craig Breslow, among others, there’s a trend toward former players becoming leaders for MLB clubs. Posey wasn’t sure whether that representation might lessen the risk aversion that has led to a static trade market in recent years. But in his personal experience, he agreed with the suggestion that his playing experience — and learning to accept that failure is part of the job — could be a valuable trait.






B- I DONT KNOW WHAT GIANTS ODDS FOR SOTO ARE SO LOW….. NOT COMING HERE…

Yankees -120 Mets +150 Dodgers +850 Cubs +1600 Giants +1800 Red Sox +2500 Padres +4000 Mariners +4000 Tigers +5000 No other team has odds.


C- BUSTER CONFIRMS GIANTS WILL LOOK FOR SS —- (ID RATHER HAVE ADAMES )

SHAYNA:
Posey, speaking with reporters in San Antonio, said the Giants are looking for a shortstop. Said Fitzgerald did a good job there last year, but can play multiple positions. For Marco Luciano, the hope is moving him into the outfield can help unlock him at the plate. They’ll discuss it more.

SNELL’S MARKET. (MARK FEINSAND) 






FOR COMP'S SAKE

Carlos Rodón landed a six-year, $162 million deal with the Yankees prior to the 2023 season, parlaying two solid seasons into a long-term, nine-figure contract. Rodón was far less decorated than Snell when he reached free agency, but he was entering his age-30 season and had posted a 2.67 ERA in 55 starts over the previous two years when he hit the market. Snell should receive an average annual value higher than Rodón’s $27 million, but likely for fewer guaranteed years.
