Just before tonight’s game, San Francisco Giants GM Bobby Evans was officially eliminated from GM contention for 2019, according to Hank Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle.
The reported move certainly ends all speculation about Evans’ future, but Schulman’s report does hint at a couple of other things that similarly end speculation about how the Giants are going to handle this offseason:
The organization is expected to ask Evans to stay in the organization, but it’s not clear if he would stay or seek employment elsewhere. Evans, like executive vice president Brian Sabean and manager Bruce Bochy, are signed through 2019.
