The Red Sox–Nationals front office pipeline is alive and well. On Friday, the Nationals hired Justin Horowitz as an assistant general manager. Horowitz most recently served as director of amateur scouting for the Pirates beginning in 2023. But Horowitz becomes the second high-profile AGM who previously worked under Paul Toboni in Boston. This hire follows Devin Pearson’s, who also served on Toboni’s staff in his Red Sox days. Both new AGMs are viewed as sharp, modern voices in scouting and player development.
Horowitz began his baseball career as a baseball operations intern with the Red Sox while studying at Georgetown, where he also played club baseball.
