Cubs assistant GM Scott ‘Doogie’ Harris hired by Giants
Scott HarrisSCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Another day, another significant change in the Cubs’ hierarchy.
On Sunday it was assistant general manager Scott Harris getting hired away by the San Francisco Giants to become the general manager just a few miles down the road from his hometown of Redwood City, Calif.
Harris, 32, has been considered a rising-star executive in baseball for several years. A former business student at Columbia who completed his MBA at Northwestern, Harris has been in the Cubs’ front office since he was 25 – earning the nickname “Doogie Howser” at the time from one longtime Chicago baseball writer.
