Mandatory Credit: Ron Chenoy-USA TODAY Sports<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Buster Posey may be trying to get more of the gang back together.<\/p>\n<p>The former NL MVP Posey, now the president of baseball operations for the San Francisco Giants, appeared this week on The Athletic\u2019s \u201cThe Windup\u201d podcast. During the episode, Posey revealed that beloved former Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner is interested in returning to the team in an undetermined coaching capacity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe surprised me that he wants to have some kind of involvement,\u201d Posey said of Bumgarner. \u201cI kinda figured once he was done that [we would] kinda never hear from him again and he would just disappear and \u2026 go be in the woods somewhere.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I\u2019m extremely excited about him being able to just share some of his experience with some of our young pitchers,\u201d added Posey. \u201cI don\u2019t have anything set in stone with him yet, and I don\u2019t want to jump to anything with him. But I\u2019m just happy that it seems like there\u2019s a willingness for him to want to give back because he\u2019s just a wealth of knowledge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bumgarner, still only 35, was longtime battery mates with Posey in San Francisco. The lefty pitcher was on the Giants from 2009-19, earning four All-Star selections and featuring on San Francisco\u2019s World Series-winning teams in 2010, 2012, and 2014 (including as World Series MVP in 2014). Bumgarner, who last pitched for the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2023, was also very well-loved by Giants fans, especially for his many fiery antics.<\/p>\n<p>With Posey now in charge of San Francisco\u2019s front office (replacing the fired Farhan Zaidi), a ridiculous number of former Giants stars now have staff roles in the organization. It looks like Bumgarner could be next on deck.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mlb2-3567457\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>Want more great sports stories?\u00a0Subscribe to our free newsletter<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/track.mailerlite.com\/webforms\/o\/3567457\/f7r0e5?v1613616607\" alt=\"Giants could bring back beloved ex-World Series MVP in coaching role?\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<section><\/section>\n<section><\/section>\n<section id=\"featured\">\n<div>\n<article>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Francisco Giants could potentially bring back a beloved former World Series MVP in a coaching role, it was revealed this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12831,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Giants could bring back beloved ex-World Series MVP in coaching role?
