Kai Correa reveals what drew him to Farhan Zaidi, Giants organization

The Giants are entering a new era in 2020.

When and if this season gets underway, new manager Gabe Kapler has built a robust staff with a variety of backgrounds in the baseball world.

One of those new hires is bench coach Kai Correa, who comes over from the Cleveland Indians, where he was an infield coach and designated as the team’s defensive coordinator.

“The sheer reason is excitement,” Correa told Greg Papa and John Lund on KNBR 680. “When you get in the room with [general manager] Scott Harris and [president of baseball operations] Farhan and Kap together and you can feel that direction, that energy, and see them moving the pieces on the board to actually create process and change to go in a certain direction, it was something I wanted to be a part of.
