Posey on the big swing he took hiring Tony Vitello straight out of college: “Tony’s been great about it, too. It’s, like, we don’t know. We still don’t know, right? ... But I’m confident just in the person and the way he goes about his work and how he reads people, commands the room, can motivate.”

🤖 Shayna Rubin Rafael Devers was one of a few veterans who spoke to the team on full squad report day. Said he doesn’t see himself as a leader, but wants to be available to his teammates: “I just like to if I know that I can help somebody in hitting, sharing my experience, my knowledge that I have…

🤖 Alex Pavlovic Carson Seymour had one of the most impressive live BP sessions yet, including a swinging strikeout of Luis Arraez, who rarely strikes out. Giants desperately need a young starter or two to take a leap this spring and become an early-season bullpen option.

Tony Vitello said no one from the Giants' clubhouse or front office spoke to him about his impromptu comments on his departure from Tennessee yesterday. "No one is going to convince me otherwise that all that was inappropriate, but I'm worried about baseball. I'm not worried about that."

Giants player rep Logan Webb said there will be a meeting of player reps soon after union chief Tony Clark stepped down. “I found out when you found out. I don’t think anybody really knew about this.I haven't even had time to process it.”

Before heading to Arizona for spring training, new San Francisco Giants manager Tony Vitello checked in with Steve Kerr and got a peek at Steph Curry’s workout routine.

What did Macklin Celebrini accomplish in today's game? -He became the first NHL player to score a penalty-shot goal at the Olympics. -He surpassed Olli Määttä for the most goals by a teenager in an Olympic tournament with NHL players. -He tied Evgeni Malkin for the most points by a teenager (1/2)

Rick Celebrini‼️ Thank you for creating Canada’s next monster 🏒🔥🇨🇦 -All of Canada 🤝

Now that JK is gone, love him or hate him, all those feelings have to go somewhere, and I see the outsized attention on Podz ratcheting it up. No player (or coach!) is beyond criticism, I just don’t understand the *level that it’s happening it at. Too extreme.

🤖 Justice delos Santos What do we make of Tony Vitello's first couple of days of camp? What are some of the challenges awaiting? I talked with @j_shusterman_ of @CespedesBBQ about Vitello, the lineup and Jordan's "breaking news" this morning. Full video: 🔗

Having a hard time with the Kerr and Kuminga tribalism. Haven’t felt this down on the discourse and fanbase fighting since Wiggins needed the personal days.

For those keeping score at home, the #SFGiants 40-man roster remains full. The obvious 60-day injured list moves they had (Randy Rodríguez, Jason Foley, and Rowan Wick) have all been used.

-Vitello also shared a story from his time as a college player. After losing a big game, he was at a bar and talking to Tingler about a coach that he admired. Tingler said, "You could be better than that," and that vote of confidence has stuck with Vitello since then.
