Monday afternoon the San Francisco Giants announced Bobby Evans would not return next year as the their general manger.
Shortly thereafter Larry Baer, the Giants President and CEO, and Brian Sabean, the Giants Executive Vice President of Baseball Operations, released statements about their former general manger.
“I want to thank Bobby for his tireless work on behalf of the Giants. He played an important role in our team’s success throughout his tenure, which includes three World Series championships, four NL pennants and eight playoff appearances,” said Giants President and CEO Laurence M. Baer. “We look forward to new leadership to continue our historic record of success.”
“I take great pride in the longstanding continuity of our baseball department. I want to express my thanks to Bobby for all he has given to the Giants over the past 25 years and for his countless contributions,” said Giants Executive Vice President of Baseball Operations Brian Sabean. “I’ll be working closely with with Larry as the organization finds its next leader of baseball operations.”
Although he no longer will be general manger the Giants are looking to fit him into another role with the organization and his new responsibilities are “to be determined.”
The Giants have stated they will immediately begin searching for their next head of baseball operations.
