Detroit — While the rest of the baseball world awaits the start of the World Series, president of baseball operations Scott Harris was busy reshaping the Tigers' front office and training staff.
Late Monday afternoon, according to sources close to the team, the Tigers and longtime front office executive David Chadd mutually agreed to part ways. Chadd, who has been with the organization since 2005 and was former general manager Al Avila's right-hand man since 2015, had two years left on his contract.
According to sources, efforts to find a different role in the organization for Chadd were unsuccessful and Chadd opted to pursue other opportunities.
