Giants To Hire Curt Young As Pitching Coach

By Jeff Todd | November 3, 2017 at 8:17pm CDT

The Giants are set to hire Curt Young as their next pitching coach, according to Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle (Twitter links). San Francisco announced previously that Dave Righetti would move to the front office after a lengthy run in that role.

Young, a former big league hurler, has previously enjoyed two fairly lengthy runs as the Athletics’ pitching coach. Oakland bumped Young from the job earlier this summer, much to the surprise of some other uniformed team members. He has also had a stint in that position with the Red Sox.

With the decision, the Giants have now mostly completed an overhaul of their coaching staff. Several previous coaches were removed from their jobs or shifted into other roles, and the club has already proceeded to hire Alonzo Powell as hitting coach.

          And apparently you are not alone. I mean, eventually I figured it out, but it definitely threw me off for a couple of seconds. Man, what a well placed typo..lol

          In those few seconds, I was asking myself all kinds of question, ”

          **..Who is this Smith guy??

          **..Did Oakland have two pitching coaches last year??

          **..And was this Smith guy the primary, with Young as the secondary pitching coach??

          **..Hmm..I wonder if Smith is going to join Young in SanFran in some compacity??

          **….Ohhh dang, wait a minute, I’m a complete moron, apparently Smith is just a typo!! lol haha

      I re-read the article several times and came to the conclusion that it was either missing a paragraph, or Curt Young’s nickname is Smith. Worst case scenario is the entire article and it’s posts are featured in a revival of Unsolved Mysteries or in the feature film “Smith?” directed by Robert Redford and starring Al Pacino and Edward Norton.

      Side Bream retired, getting up there in age, and the man still lives mistake free…

      He was always one of my favorite Braves, and was always a class act…They could seriously use a guy like Bream somewhere in their front office…He certainly couldn’t hurt none..lol
