I consider myself someone who attempts to balance both traditional and newer methods of player evaluation. I feel like objective analysis has a very important place in the decision, but it's only one part of the process.
"Rick Hahn" is the Vice-President/General Manager of the Chicago White Sox.
In July 2011, SportsIllustrated.com ranked Hahn as the #1 General Manager Candidate in Major League Baseball. Similarly, in March, 2010, Baseball America named Hahn the #1 General Manager prospect in Baseball. And, during the 2008 season, Baseball Prospectus/BaseballProspectus.com had named Hahn one of the top-ten GM candidates in the game.
Following the 2007 season, Hahn withdrew his name from consideration for the General Manager's job of the St. Louis Cardinals, who eventually named John Mozeliak to the position, and he also declined the opportunity to interview for the Pittsburgh Pirates GM job prior to Neal Huntington being named to that post. Additionally, the White Sox declined Hahn permission to interview for the Seattle Mariners GM job following the 2008 season.
Hahn is a graduate of the University of Michigan, Harvard Law School and Kellogg Graduate School of Management (Northwestern University).
