Dick Williams has resigned as Cincinnati Reds President of Baseball Operations. Williams, who has worked for the Reds in various roles over the last 15 years, sounds like he wants to spend more time with his family.
“I am not sure everybody appreciates the sacrifices our families make for us in this sport. In order to do this job right, you are at a ballpark, either in the major or minor leagues, every single day, night and weekend from mid-February until deep into the fall,” said Williams, who spent the last five years as head of the baseball operations department.
