SAN FRANCISCO — On the surface, it’s an odd look.
The annual General Manager Meetings are this week in Carlsbad, a few miles north of San Diego, and the Giants are going there without a general manager. Since relieving Bobby Evans of his duties during the last week of the regular season, ownership has undertaken a deliberate search for a new head of baseball operations, one that doesn’t look headed for a conclusion this week.
Will this hurt the Giants as executives from around the game gather?
Well, no.
There is rarely any significant action this early in November, and the Giants aren’t faced with any business that would count as pressing.
