The San Francisco Giants have announced basically the rest of Bob Melvin’s coaching staff for 2024, and it’s another pair of familiar names.
Garvin Alston, who is not a Bay Area native, replaces Craig Albernaz as the new bullpen coach. Susan Slusser posted that news last night. He’d been the River Cats pitching coach the past two seasons. He was the 10th round pick of the expansion Colorado Rockies’ inaugural draft. He’d make it to the majors in 1996 and pitched 6 innings. He had arm surgery and was never the same after, bouncing around the minors and in Taiwan.
