The #SFGiants have exercised the 2026 option for Manager Bob Melvin

GIANTS EXERCISE 2026 OPTION FOR MANAGER BOB MELVIN SAN FRANCISCO — The San Francisco Giants announced today that they have exercised the 2026 option for manager Bob Melvin. “Having the chance to work alongside Bob every day, we’re really fortunate to have such an experienced leader and one of the most well-respected managers in baseball,” said Giants President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey. His leadership, preparation, and connection with our players have been invaluable, and we believe he’s the right person to continue guiding this team forward.” “I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue leading this group,” said Manager Bob Melvin. “I believe in what we’re building here, and I appreciate the confidence that the Giants ownership group, Greg, Buster, Larry, Zack and the rest of the Giants’ organization have shown in me and our staff. We have a lot of unfinished business this year, and I’m looking forward to the work ahead.” Melvin, 63, is in his second season as manager of the San Francisco Giants, his 22nd overall as a big-league manager. In those 22 seasons, Melvin has guided his teams to eight Postseason appearances that include four division titles and two trips to the League Championship Series (2007 with Arizona and 2022 with San Diego). He was also a bench coach on the 2001 Arizona Diamondbacks club that won the World Series. As a Major League manager, Melvin has garnered three Manager of the Year awards (2007 with Arizona and 2012 & 2018 with Oakland) and owns a lifetime managerial winning percentage of .515, compiling a 1,642-1,547 record during the regular season. His 1,642 regular season wins rank 21st all-time and are third-most among active managers behind Bruce Bochy (2,212) and Terry Francona (1,994).
