Farhan Zaidi charts bold new course for Giants: ‘Everything has got to be on the table’

SAN FRANCISCO–Farhan Zaidi was hired to fix everything.

But the San Francisco Giants’ new president of baseball operations revealed Wednesday that his ultimate goal is to disturb something Bay Area residents care deeply about.

“Seeing the three Giants parades on the local news and hearing my friends complain about how it was messing up their commutes, I have first-hand experience with those,” Zaidi said. “That’s the goal, I hope we’re messing up people’s commutes with parades very soon.”

The last time the Giants marched down Market Street, Zaidi was a wunderkind assistant general manager and one of the most valuable front office assets for the Oakland A’s.
