Aubrey Huff is back in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. The former San Francisco Giants first baseman unloaded a homophobic social media tirade Wednesday aimed at his old team and specifically at Buster Posey, now the team’s president of baseball operations. The timing lines up with the Giants’ recent Pride Night celebrations, and Huff made it very clear he wasn’t happy about it.
Huff posted the rant on social media June 24, 2026. He started by saying he has “respect” for Posey, his former teammate during the Giants’ World Series runs. But then he went off. He wrote that Pride Night “makes me puke watching him have to be force fed this gay monthly agenda that has somehow weaseled its way into every aspect of society.” He also claimed that people like him get called bigots or homophobes “if we don’t cater & morally accept their own sick sexual behavior.”
From there, Huff called the Giants organization “pathetic” for embracing events like Pride Night. He didn’t stop at the front office. He blamed the players too.
“I blame every single player on that team that hasn’t taken up for their teammates publicly for having the stones to wear bible verses on their hats. Nor having Buster’s back,” Huff wrote. Then he went after outfielder Drew Gilbert, a .234 hitter with three home runs, using a graphic sexual analogy about how Gilbert celebrates wins. The language was extremely vulgar and targeted toward Posey’s supposed silence on the issue.
Huff also took shots at Rafael Devers, calling him “soft” and saying he has “zero balls.” He claimed the clubhouse has “zero leadership” and has been “overrun by a bunch of spoiled, talentless p*****s who posses zero pride, nor respect for the game, the organization, the fans, & even teammates.”
The Giants are 33-46 and sitting in fourth place in the NL West. Huff thinks their problems run deeper than the record. He said the team lacks “killer instincts” and compared them to “talentless, attention-seeking IG chicks.” In his words, “They don’t know the first thing about how to win. They lack killer instincts. But they sure do know how to hit like s**t while drawing attention to themselves.”
Huff has a history of controversial social media posts, often political or culture-war adjacent. This one cuts closer to home because Posey is a Giants legend and a key figure in the organization’s front office. The team has not responded to Huff’s comments as of publication.
