"He's very smart. He brings a ton of passion. You talk to some guys that have played for him before. I've heard Garrett Crochet said great things about him. I've heard Drew Gilbert say great things about him. Even guys going to my gym that were recruited by him have the best things to say about him."
"So, I'm super excited. I know the guys are super excited. I think it's going to be a healthy energy boost to our team and our clubhouse. And I think he's very smart, too. You don't know what's going to happen until you get to spring training and you see it live. But as of right now, I think we're all super excited."
Logan Webb posted one of his best seasons, leading the majors in innings and the National League in strikeouts, and is a candidate for his first Gold Glove. Webb emphasized his primary goal of returning the Giants to the playoffs and expressed frustration at missing postseason play. The Giants hired Tony Vitello, a successful eight-season Tennessee coach, as major-league manager despite his lack of professional experience; president of baseball operations Buster Posey made the hire. Webb praised Vitello's energy, intelligence and passion, cited positive remarks from players connected to Vitello, and began building a relationship after the hiring.
