MLBTR says the Giants are going to hire Tony Vitello to be the next manager.
I mentioned him earlier as a "dark horse" candidate. He's the head coach at Tennessee and has a spectacular NCAA resumé. College coaches don't usually become MLB managers. But guys don't usually throw six shutout innings and hit three homers in the same game, either. Lots of things are possible.
Buster is going to do things his way! (Assuming the rumor is true, of course.)

It’s hard to imagine a college coach with no MLB experience being better than Bob Melvin.
It would be a big risk on Busters part. Part of me is cringing. Part of me is thinking about Busters testicular mass to not be worried about what ‘they’ would say about a new GM hiring a college coach that has never set foot in the MLB arena.
Maybe it’s the genius outside the box thinking that we think back on when we consider Busters legacy at the end of GM tenure….
