How Scott Harris’ love of transactions made him right fit for Giants

SAN FRANCISCO -- Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi and Scott Harris had met just once before Zaidi started his search for a general manager. When he was hired last November, Zaidi talked a lot about making the organization incrementally better with every transaction, even if the move was a small one. When he was introduced as the new GM earlier this month, Harris said something similar after he was asked what he learned from working for the Chicago Cubs.
