Things move quickly, even in the offseason, and it turns out that Scott Harris will be staying with the San Francisco Giants. On Monday morning it was reported that Harris, the team’s general manager for the last two years, had talked with the New York Mets about a position in their front office, as they are overhauling their baseball operations department.
But just a few hours later, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reported that Harris had informed Mets owner Steve Cohen that he was not interested. Given that Harris is still in the early days of having a high ranking position with a team that just won 107 games and is near his hometown, this shouldn’t be surprising.
