The San Francisco Giants are naming Tony Vitello as the team's new manager, per ESPN's Jeff Passan and Pete Thamel. Vitello previously served as the manager for the University of Tennessee's baseball program and will become the first MLB manager hired directly from a college program. Vitello led the Volunteers to a College Baseball World Series victory in 2024. The Giants fired veteran MLB manager Bob Melvin on September 29 after he spent two seasons at the helm and failed to lead San Francisco to a playoff berth in either year. Expectations for Vitello in San Francisco will be high right away. The Giants have a talented roster and may continue to add pieces during the offseason, but they also play in one of MLB's most competitive divisions in the National League West.--Will BradyRead More News
