Rick Hahn

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, 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 began his professional career as an agent at Steinberg, Moorad and Dunn in 2000. He worked there for two years before joining the White Sox in 2002. His aspirations of becoming a baseball executive were spurred on early in life at age eleven when he wrote a letter to Dallas Green, the Cubs Vice President and General Manager at the time, suggesting possible lineup moves, and Green responded to him in the form of a letter.

Rick Hahn (born March 20, 1971) is an American baseball executive who serves as the vice president and general manager of the Chicago White Sox of Major League Baseball. Since his promotion before the 2013 season, his teams have a 491–642 record and no postseason appearances or winning seasons.
