There has been no shortage of former/Forever Giants pitching in on the coaching staff and for Spring Training this season. Who do Giants fans want to see join the squad?
Good morning, baseball fans!
The San Francisco Giants have no shortage of former players in the organization, pitching in for both official coaching duties and unofficial coaching assistance for Spring Training.
One name that stood out to me when the latter group was announced was Madison Bumgarner. He is not currently working with the organization, but Buster Posey has mentioned recruiting both Bumgarner and Brandon Crawford for positions with the organization in the future.
I think Crawford re-joining the organization was always pretty much an inevitability. Bumgarner, though, would be an interesting/exciting reunion. He still follows the team very closely, as we learned when he sat in for an inning with the television broadcasters last season. And he’s got a wealth of experience for the younger players to learn from, he’s still a gosh darn living legend in my book. So he’d be my pick.
Which former Giant do you want to see on the coaching staff?
