As predicted by many in baseball, former Harvard infielder Peter Woodfork '99 was named the Assistant GM of the Diamondbacks. So goes the meteoric rise of Woodfork, with whom I got to chat when he joined the Red Sox. Congratulations! Here are a few clips, conveniently assembled by Paul McNeeley of Friends of Harvard Baseball:The Boston Globe's Eric Wilbur:
“We’re sorry to see Peter go, but this promotion is an opportunity he has been working for and building toward for several years,” said Red Sox president/CEO Larry Lucchino. “He was a valuable contributor to our operations and administration for the last three years, and we wish him the best in Arizona, except, of course, in interleague play.”Also:
- The Daily Item of Lynn (MA)
- The Arizona Republic
- We'll also add the Swampscott Reporter, Peter's hometown paper, since they inexplicably refer to Harvard's baseball team as the "Crimson Tide."
