Sabean spent the first eight seasons of his career with the Yankees, starting as a scout in 1985. He had been with the Giants since 1993.
After 30 seasons with the Giants and overseeing three World Series championships, Brian Sabean is headed back to the New York Yankees.
The Yankees announced on Tuesday that Sabean, 66, has been named executive advisor to senior vice president and general manager Brian Cashman. Sabean, who led the Giants’ baseball operations department from 1996-2018, spent the past four seasons as an executive vice president with the franchise, working on strategic initiatives as a senior advisor and evaluator. Sabean shifted to an executive vice president role when Farhan Zaidi took over a restructured front office as president of baseball operations after the 2018 season. The role allowed Sabean to spend much of his time scouting and evaluating players.
In a statement, the Giants called Sabean a “Forever Giants” and thanked him “for his enormous contributions to our organization and wish him the best of luck on his new position with the New York Yankees.” “Brian has been a pillar of our game and a cornerstone of this franchise for 30 years and we are extremely appreciative of his leadership and the legacy he leaves behind. We truly believe he’s a Hall of Fame worthy executive in every sense of the word and wish him, his wife Amanda, and his entire family nothing but the best in the future. He will always be a Forever Giant.
