SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) -- The San Francisco Giants have parted ways with President of Baseball Operations Farhan Zaidi and named Buster Posey as his replacement. Zaidi had been with the Giants for six years but was let go in part due to the team's disappointing results, according to a statement posted to X. "We appreciate Farhan's commitment to the organization and his passion for making an impact in our community during his six years with the Giants," team Chairman Greg Johnson wrote on X. "Ultimately, the results have not been what we had hoped, and while that responsibility is shared by all of us, we have decided that a change is necessary."
