• Assist with advance scouting needs at the affiliate.
• Serve as a conduit between the affiliate and the larger organization, relaying questions, issues, and requests.
• Maintain frequent communication with the Personnel Coordinator regarding technical issues and requests.
• Attend Spring Training and offseason camps and travel with the assigned minor league team throughout the season.
