"I would have called him up at the beginning of September, because I've always been a big advocate for him, ... The timing thing is weird. I would have called him up earlier. When the Giants were going through all that stuff, when they were playing terrible, I was like, 'Why not call him up now? Let him play.' This guy's a special player. I've seen it, I've been with him."
"special relationship"
"a proud papa"
J.T. Snow worked two stints in Sacramento with 20-year-old Bryce Eldridge and describes a special relationship and deep admiration for the slugger. Snow watched Eldridge make his MLB debut, calling himself 'a proud papa' despite Eldridge going 0-for-3 with a notable deep fly to left-center caught by Jorge Barrosa. Snow criticized the Giants' timing, saying he would have promoted Eldridge at the start of September, possibly in Denver. Giants president of baseball operations Buster Posey planned no 2025 promotion, preferring further development, but the team's late surge prompted a late-season call-up.
