Bruce Bochy is a World Series champion again. Bochy left the San Francisco Giants following the 2019 season, and came out of retirement a few years later and won his fourth ring in his first season with the Texas Rangers.
What lessons can the Giants take away from Bochy and this Rangers team? There are multiple potential lessons, but not all have to do with the manager. In fact, most perhaps do not. But Bochy's legacy is undeniable and incredible.
Finally, some details on the rift between new SF Giants manager Bob Melvin and Padres GM A.J. Preller come to light and are discussed. Billy Beane, who's worked closely with both Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi and Melvin, thinks the two are perfect for each other in San Francisco.Find and follow Locked On Giants on your favorite podcast platforms:
