Reports: Giants set to hire Zack Minasian as GM

For the first in Major League Baseball history, two brothers will simultaneously serve as general managers, as the San Francisco Giants are set to hire Zack Minasian, the brother of Los Angeles Angels GM Perry Minasian, per multiple reports on Thursday.

Zack Minasian reportedly will be named the 11th official general manager in Giants' history on Friday after serving as the organization's vice president of professional scouting since 2022.

New Giants president of baseball operations Buster Posey, a three-time World Series champion as San Francisco's catcher, has reshuffled the front office since taking over last month. Posey replaced Farhan Zaidi, who was let go on Sept. 30, and fired general manager Pete Putila, who was hired in October 2022 to handle the role.

Zack Minasian joined San Francisco's front office in 2019 following 14 years in the Milwaukee Brewers' organization.

The Giants, who missed the playoffs for the third straight season and have only qualified once over the past eight seasons, are looking to regain the dominance they displayed in the early 2010s, when they won three World Series titles in five seasons.

Perry Minasian has been GM of the Angels since November 2020, following roles with the Atlanta Braves, Toronto Blue Jays and Texas Rangers.
