2024 Coaching Performance or Lack Thereof

Did Bob Melvin and his staff make Farhan's roster better? The brothers are discussing the coaching staff today including why fans can never truly understand the dark art of MLB coaching, where the 2024 Giants needed the most coaching, and the one area that definitely needs to get significantly better. Finally they discuss why the 2025 staff will be a lot different not matter what the internal evaluations will be.

Our new cocktail podcast The Perfect Sip is in full swing even though Giants bats are not. You can find it here:
