Over just a few days, the Tony Vitello-to-San Francisco Giants storyline has gone from rumor to reality. What started as light curiosity about the Tennessee head coach quickly turned into legitimate negotiations, with multiple outlets now reporting that the Giants are “closing in” on Vitello as their next manager. This episode unpacks the entire escalation—from Buster Posey’s first outreach to where talks stand now—and why the move, while risky, perfectly fits Posey’s vision of energizing the clubhouse with a bold, culture-driven leader. We break down the timeline, the reasoning behind the urgency, the remaining hurdles (buyout terms, staffing structure, lack of MLB experience), and what to expect next if the deal gets finalized. Plus, we react to Nick Hundley officially withdrawing from consideration, how that opened the door wider for Vitello, and why the Giants’ search feels like it’s approaching a franchise-defining moment. 0:00 Giants “closing in” on Tony Vitello9:11 Thoughts on possible hire19:15 Deal could fall throughFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…🎧 https://lockedonpodcasts.com/podcasts/locked-on-san-francisco-giants/Locked On MLB League-Wide: Every Team, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnMLB#SFGiants #FirstListen #Giants #sanfranciscogiants #sanfrancisco #baseball #mlbTune in for a detailed breakdown on the current state of your San Francisco Giants!Locked On Giants podcast is your daily ticket to stay ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the San Francisco Giants and Major League Baseball.
