It doesn’t look like the Giants’ mind trust is going anywhere next season.
Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle recently He spoke with Giants owner Greg Johnsonwho reiterated his previous comments to the Chronicle, confirming that president of baseball operations Farhan Al-Zaidi and manager Gabe Kapler will remain with the team for the 2024 season.
“They’ll both be here next year,” Johnson told Slusser.
The Giants owner also shared that the team has an opt-out clause in Zaidi’s original five-year contract that “expired months ago” and that we “fully stand behind it.”
San Francisco’s recent six-game losing streak has reignited the ongoing debate over Zaidi and Kapler’s future with the team, as a portion of the Giants’ fan base remains dissatisfied with the current state of the organization after nearly four seasons with the system together.
However, after 5-1 at home, the Giants (75-71), currently hold the third and final wild-card spot in the NFL, and should soon be healthy for the first time all season.
After a historic 107-win 2021 season, the Giants finished with a disappointing 81-81 record in 2022 and weren’t much better in 2023, despite a very busy offseason and multiple additions to the roster.
If the Giants can sneak into the playoffs this season and have a success or two offseason next season while competing for a championship in 2024, it would certainly bode well for Zaidi and Kapler’s future with the team beyond next season.
