Yesterday on the MLB Network Bruce Bochy indicated that at some point he'll have to consider retirement, but that he doesn't want to go out this way (which such a horrible record). If the Giants have another tough season and go into rebuild mode, I would think Bruce and the Giants might agree it is time for his gold watch.
Bruce's comments echoed the thought that the Giants are getting more into analytics and trying to take a more progressive approach. (They are said to be among the leaders in biometrics, the field of monitoring players' bodies to see when they get tired, etc., so that they can both react to it and come up with methods to reduce the issues.)
Bruce indicated he would miss guys like Dave Righetti but after such a down season saw the need for a fresh approach.
