The San Francisco Giants were met with near-universal praise upon the introduction of former Chicago Cubs executive Scott Harris as the team’s new general manager.
The young 32-year-old baseball mind had come from a strong collaborative culture in Chicago and grew under the tutelage of highly-regarded executives such as Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer.
It seemed as if the Giants had taken a step in the right direction as Farhan Zaidi and Harris would lead a new era of San Francisco Giants baseball complete with an increased focus on analytics and a strong clubhouse culture.
