Red Sox’ GM search now up in the air following Paul Toboni’s departure to the Nationals

The Red Sox’ search for a general manager has taken a turn following an assistant GM’s recent departure.

Two weeks after announcing that he planned to hire a GM after the season, chief baseball officer Craig Breslow, as well as president Sam Kennedy, told The Boston Globe’s Tim Healey that the organization is taking a step back from the hiring hunt.

“It’s something that we’ve talked about, but no concrete plans,” Kennedy said to Healey following Thursday’s season-ending Wild Card series loss to the New York Yankees.

“It’s something that I will take stock of once we get through [the postseason],” Breslow said.
