SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The San Francisco Giants have hired former All-Star catcher Buster Posey as their president of baseball operations and fired Farhan Zaidi. Chairman Greg Johnson made the announcement a day after the Giants finished 80-82 in manager Bob Melvin’s first season — with one more victory than a year earlier. San Francisco won the NL West with a franchise-record 107 wins in 2021 but hasn’t made the playoffs since. The 37-year-old Posey joined the club’s ownership group in September 2022, less than a year after his retirement in November 2021.
