While the Chicago Cubs continue an internal investigation into former executive Jared Porter's misconduct with a female reporter, the team is planning on making changes to its hiring process.
Speaking publicly for the first time since Porter was fired last month as the New York Mets' general manager, Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer said his organization's new hiring practice will start with a more "thorough" background check on any potential employee.
"I think about the way we would like our process to be, like for a first-round draft pick," Hoyer said Monday.
