We’re still waiting for new President of Baseball Ops, Scott Harris to hire a new general manager and a new scouting director. Those two decisions may ultimately be more impactful to the future success of the organization than any player decisions this offseason. One would expect the former will occur before the offseason begins in earnest, but we’ll have to wait and see. However, the turnover in the front office continued on Monday as the Tigers parted ways with long-time assistant general manager, David Chadd. The news was first reported by Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press.
Chadd has been with the Tigers for 18 years, so his tenure goes all the way back to the early years of the Dave Dombrowski era.
