Giants Drop Their GM

The San Francisco Giants dismissed general manager Bobby Evans:

Executive vice president Brian Sabean and manager Bruce Bochy are expected to be retained. All three men are signed through 2019, according to a San Francisco Chronicle report.

ESPN’s Buster Olney reported Sunday that the Giants have “quietly asked around” for a high-profile baseball-operations executive to add to their front office, as the team is expected to shake things up after the season ends.

Evans has been with the organization since 1994, when he joined as a minor league administrative assistant. He was promoted to GM for the 2015 season, taking over for Sabean after Sabean was promoted.

The Giants won three World Series in the five years before Evans took over, so that was going to be a tough act to follow for anyone.
