When the SF Giants fired manager Bob Melvin, there was instant speculation that a reunion with Bruce Bochy could be in the cards. Buster Posey has ruled out Bochy returning as manager, but with the San Diego Padres now needing a new manager a nightmare scenario could unfold.
Padres manager Mike Shildt has decided to retire which could create a problem for the Giants in a few different ways. Nick Hundley is the reported frontrunner for the job in San Francisco, but he has ties to the Padres so if the Giants want him as their guy they may need to act quickly.
