BALTIMORE -- Orioles vice president of baseball operations Jim Duquette
resigned Friday after two seasons with the struggling franchise.
Baltimore ended its 10th consecutive losing season Sunday with a 69-93 record
and a fourth-place finish in the AL East, 27 games behind first-place Boston.
"I felt it was in the organization's best interest, as well as my own, to
start fresh somewhere else," Duquette said in a statement.
"I'm grateful for the opportunities the Orioles have provided," he said. "I
think it's important for me, personally and professionally, to continue to
develop and to look at opportunities elsewhere."
Duquette joined the Orioles in October 2005 after working in the front office
of the New York Mets for 14 of the previous 15 seasons, including 1½ years
as general manager. He also worked for the Houston Astros for a year.
"I appreciate the work that Jim has done here, and I also understand his
decision to resign," Orioles president Andy MacPhail said in the statement.
"Jim wants to continue his career with a different organization, which I
understand. I wish him well."
