Former San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler reportedly interviewed for a top job as his old team paused its search for his replacement.
The San Francisco Giants’ search for a new manager to replace Gabe Kapler is reportedly on hold, but Kapler is reportedly already in the running for a new job. That job? Running the Boston Red Sox baseball operations department. Kapler recently took an interview for the position, according to a report from the Boston Globe’s Alex Speier. Yes, Kapler could go from being fired by Farhan Zaidi, the Giants president of baseball operations, to being one of Zaidi’s contemporaries and trade partners.
In fact, Zaidi is reportedly on the other side of the world, over in Japan to see top pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto ahead of the right-hander’s likely entry into MLB free agency. But another reason to wait for the manager search is that a few candidates the Giants are pursuing aren’t available for interviews yet. Rangers hitting coach Donnie Ecker, for example, is still in the middle of the ALCS. Baggarly identified Padres manager Bob Melvin as the “candidate looming over everything” right now.
