306: President Posey

TortureCast (SF Giants Podcast)

The "Fire Farhan" brigade got their wish, but his replacement was a bit of a surprise. Buster Posey was named President of Baseball Operations of the San Francisco Giants. It's not often that a franchise icon gets a chance to run their team, but if anyone can succeed, it's Buster Posey. He was introduced Tuesday at Oracle Park and he promised to please the fans and players and get back to what San Francisco Giants' baseball is all about. This man appears to care deeply about this team, and is somewhat putting his reputation on the line. A few call this move desparate, but it seems that most Giants fans are 100% behind this move. I mean, could it be worse than Farhan? One playoff appearance and one winning record in 6 years suggests not. Farhan's time ran out. Maybe he was given too much rope as it is. Chad and Eric talk about this monumental decision in Giants history and the potential good and bad ramifications it could have on the franchise (we think mostly good!).
