The San Francisco Giants haven’t hired Bruce Bochy’s replacement yet, but did make a high-profile addition to their front office on Sunday.
The Giants hired Scott Harris to serve as the team’s general manager under president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi.
Harris, a native of Redwood City, was the assistant general manager for the Chicago Cubs and worked for one of the most well-respected executives in baseball, president of baseball operations Theo Epstein.
Harris began his career with the Cubs in 2010 when he was hired as the team’s director of baseball operations at 25.
Both Zaidi and Harris are expected to represent the Giants at MLB’s general manager meetings in Scottsdale, Ariz.
