Buster Posey doesn't consider former manager Bruce Bochy a candidate to fill San Francisco's vacancy
- On October 1, 2025, Giants executive Buster Posey indicated that Bruce Bochy, who previously managed the team, is not being viewed as a contender to take over the team’s open managerial role in San Francisco.
- This development comes after the Giants dismissed Bob Melvin on Monday following an 81-81 season, while the Texas Rangers and Bochy agreed to part ways after three seasons that included the franchise’s first World Series title in 2023.
- Posey, who took over as the Giants' president of baseball operations last year replacing Farhan Zaidi, acknowledged the team had a consistent stretch of poor performance and missed playoffs for the fourth straight year.
- At a news conference held at Oracle Park, he acknowledged that while the team has many positive elements in place, they fell short of their objectives this season, and he also mentioned that Bochy is always welcome to take on some capacity within the organization.
- Posey expressed commitment to the present, emphasized finding managerial stability, and noted interviews are ongoing to select a leader who can help the club become a consistent contender again.
