The announcement came on Wednesday via his Instagram page, where Crawford expressed his excitement for the new opportunities ahead, while reflecting on the fulfilling journey that brought him full circle from childhood dreams to wearing the ORANGE and BLACK.
"It was an honor to get to know Brandon as a friend and as a teammate," Posey said in a statement released by the Giants. "From the first day we were both drafted in 2008 to our final year playing together in 2021, it was an honor to play alongside him for 14 years."
