The Giants announced on Friday morning that former players Javier López and Curt Casali will join the team’s front office as advisors to baseball operations.

Additionally, Paul Bien has been promoted to assistant general manager of baseball analytics after spending the last four seasons as the team’s vice president to baseball analytics.

“Javy was great on the teams that I had,” special advisor to baseball operations Bruce Bochy told this news organization. “He was the leader of the bullpen, got things in order there. He’s a guy that wasn’t afraid to call somebody out if necessary. … I’m not surprised at all that Javy’s heading to the front office. I’ve always respect how he carried himself, how he was around the players, how much respect the had from all the players.”
