The San Francisco Giants announced the hiring of Houston Astros assistant general manager Pete Putila as the team's new general manager on Monday night.
Putila, who is just 33 years old, will assume the role previously held by Scott Harris, who was hired as president of baseball operations of the Detroit Tigers last month.
In San Francisco, Putila will work with and report to president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi, who has led the Giants' front office since 2018.
