Buster Posey enters the 2025 season with a sense of calm as he steps into his new role as president of baseball operations for the San Francisco Giants. Unlike the pre-game nerves he felt as a player, Posey is now focused on the broader dynamics of team management. He’s already made significant offseason moves, including signing infielder Willy Adames and pitcher Justin Verlander. With eight players making their major league debuts on opening day, including Heliot Ramos, Posey hopes to establish a stable left fielder after years of turnover in that position.

The Giants, who finished below .500 in the last two seasons, exhibited promising signs in spring training with a 21-6-4 record, indicating a potentially strong start. Posey's ambitions also include creating a trophy case for the team's World Series accolades, reflecting his desire to build a winning culture reminiscent of San Francisco’s successful past.
