    The Bochy reunion is apparently not to be. The Giants are closing in on Tennessee head coach Tony Vitello. He has zero professional baseball experience at any level, though he turned around the Volunteers' program. Posey is high on him.

    That was yesterday's rumor. Today's rumor is that if Vitello agrees, they'll pursue Max Scherzer.

      @sgt1372 If it helps get Vitello signed, and it works out well, I suppose it has some value. Verlander was the better pitcher last year.

      @steter

      Read that about Vitello too. He's been a winner at the college level but that's obviously not the same as the Big Leagues. It will certainly shake things up if it happens.

      As far as pitching goes, why would the Giants go after Scherzer when they still have the possibility of re-signing Verlander in their pocket? 🤷

      Besides that, they're both long in the tooth & well past their prime, who provably have have a few good games in them but can't the Giants do better than either of them in the open market? 🤔

      @steter@stevesworld.co It was just announced that Vitello has been hired as the new mgf of the #SFGiants

      The article also notes that Scherzer played in Tennessee for Vitello which makes more sense if they try to get him instead of (or in addition to Verlander) on a 1 yr FA rental.

      @sgt1372 I've done this in OOTP Baseball. If I can't find an MLB <whatever>, and there is a young-ish minor league <whatever> with a track record of steady improvement of a minor league team, I'll sign them. Sometimes it works out very well. I'm hoping this is a real-life example of that.
