The San Francisco Giants announced today that they will be extending manager Gabe Kapler’s contract through the 2024 season. Kapler’s initial contract was for three years, so this extension adds two seasons onto that.

This comes as no surprise, of course. Possibly the easiest decision the organization will have to make this off-season. Since taking the reigns for the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, Kapler has taken a team that was perpetually on the brink of a complete reboot and overhauled them into not only being contenders in 2020, but also the best team in baseball in the 2021 season, with a franchise-record 107 wins.
