The Giants officially announced Tony Vitello’s first major league coaching staff on Friday afternoon. Although much of the staff had been previously reported, the team revealed the promotions of Shane Robinson and Hector Borg as their respective base coaches.
Robinson, 41, takes over as the first base coach. He was a depth outfielder who played parts of nine MLB seasons. He retired from playing after the 2021 season and jumped into a coaching role in the San Diego farm system. Robinson also worked for the Mets before taking a minor league outfield/baserunning coach job with the Giants last year. This is his first stint on a major league staff.
The 40-year-old Borg — the team’s new third base coach — is also an internal promotion. He’s an organizational lifer who played four seasons in the minors before moving into coaching in 2008. Borg has had various roles with the team’s affiliates over the past decade and a half. He also managed his native Dominican Republic at the Tokyo Olympics five years ago. This is his first job on a big league staff. Enrique Rojas of ESPN first reported that Borg would join the MLB staff in an unspecified capacity last month.
The remainder of Vitello’s staff is as follows: bench coach Jayce Tingler, hitting coach Hunter Mense, pitching coach Justin Meccage, director of pitching Frank Anderson, assistant hitting coach Oscar Bernard, assistant pitching coach Christian Wonders, bullpen coach Jesse Chavez, infield coach Ron Washington, field coordinator/catching coach Alex Burg, quality control coach Taira Uematsu, and bullpen catcher Eliezer Zambrano. Bernard, Uematsu, Zambrano and Burg are holdovers from Bob Melvin’s staff — though Burg was promoted to the field coordinator role in addition to his previous catching duties.
