Joe Hortiz is set to team up with one Harbaugh brother to work with another.
According to multiple reports, the Chargers are working to finalize a deal to make Hortiz their new general manager. Hortiz interviewed with the team twice, and the second contact came after the team hired Jim Harban as their new head coach.
Hortiz has been with the Ravens since 1998 and has worked with John Harbaugh throughout his tenure as head coach in Baltimore. Hortiz has been the team’s director of pitching since 2019.
The Chargers have serious salary cap issues to clear up heading into the 2024 season. After the deal is completed, Hortiz will be at the forefront of this effort.
