Giants' Chairman Confirms Zaidi and Kapler's Future with the Team

San Francisco Giants chairman Greg Johnson has confirmed that president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi and manager Gabe Kapler will both be returning to the team next year. The Giants, who have had a streaky season, are currently in contention for a Wild Card spot in the National League. Zaidi and Kapler took over during a transitional period and led the team to a successful 2021 season. The Giants have made some notable acquisitions, but their offense has struggled in the second half. Despite being under contract for next year, both Zaidi and Kapler will enter the season in lame duck status unless they sign longer-term extensions.
