Welcome back to Thompson 2 Clark with Brad Evans and Garrett Gonzales! The San Francisco Giants offseason is already popping, and your BSPN experts are here to break down the seismic shift in the organization.
The main event: Tony Vitello has been officially introduced as the new Giants manager! Brad and Garrett dive into the key takeaways from the introductory press conference, focusing on the high-energy and unconventional hire. We dissect the crucial comments made by President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey and General Manager Zack Minasian regarding the move, and what Vitello's words reveal about his approach to leading a Major League club with no professional experience. Is this a brilliant, forward-thinking move, or a massive gamble for the Giants' future?
Managerial Era Begins: A deep dive into the press conference and the candid opinions shared by Posey, Minasian, and Vitello.
Vitello's Vision: How the new manager plans to lean on veteran leadership and bring a renewed focus on fundamental baseball skills to the team.
The episode also takes a moment to celebrate the defensive excellence in the Bay! Congratulations are in order for Logan Webb and Patrick Bailey for bringing home Gold Glove Awards! The guys discuss the historic nature of a Giants battery winning the awards and what this means for the core of the team heading into the 2026 season.
Finally, we begrudgingly put a bow on the 2025 MLB season by recapping the World Series. Yes, the rivals you love to hate—the Los Angeles Dodgers—have won another championship. Brad and Garrett share their thoughts on the series, what the Dodgers' continued success means for the NL West, and the painful motivation it provides to the Giants organization this offseason.
