The Giants moved some coaches, including long-time pitching coach Dave Righetti, to the front office:

The San Francisco Giants have reassigned longtime pitching coach Dave Righetti from manager Bruce Bochy’s field staff to special assistant to the general manager, working under Bobby Evans.

The club announced Righetti’s role change to the front office Saturday, along with bullpen coach Mark Gardner moving into a special assignment job assisting in pitching evaluations. Assistant hitting coach Steve Decker is now a special assistant in baseball operations.

It would be difficult to fire Bruce Bochy given his long-term success with the club, but the front office sent a message by removing the coaches. Righetti survived a number of different managers. During his tenure, 2000-2017, the Giants allowed 4.22 runs per game, third lowest in the majors behind the Dodgers and Cardinals. It was quite a successful career for Righetti.
