Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
SAN DIEGO, April 19 (UPI) -- Major League Baseball's Sandy Alderson will leave his job as vice president of baseball operations to become CEO of the San Diego Padres.
The announcement was made Tuesday.
"For me this is the last piece of a complicated puzzle that involved building a ballpark and redeveloping San Diego," Padres owner John Moores said.
"It's time to build a competitive team and it allows us to significantly strengthen our management team. I think this is our most significant signing in the 11 years I've owned the team."
Alderson got a five-year contract with the San Diego club.
