Dave Righetti is still a Giant

There have been - and will continue to be - mass changes across the San Francisco Giants organization. The franchise is getting a face lift, and that means cutting ties with many of those responsible for giving them their current face.

Speaking of faces, few non-player faces are as familiar to Giants fans as that of Dave Righetti. Rags played for the Giants from 1991-1993, before joining the organization as a pitching coach in 2000.

After 2017, Raghetti was demoted to special assistant to Bobby Evans, quite arguably to serve the role of scapegoat. All of the Giants scapegoating, of course, served only to delay their realization of the truth: That the team wasn’t good, and needed changes.
