Rockies Hire Ian Levin as Assistant General Manager

The hire advances DePodesta's push to build an analytics-focused front office.

Overview

  • Colorado announced Levin's appointment, with Paul DePodesta praising his leadership in roster decisions, player development and research and development.
  • Levin spent nearly two decades with the Mets, rising to vice president and assistant general manager before departing after 2024 to launch OneOne Sports focused on data-driven development.
  • He reunites with DePodesta from their Mets tenure and follows last week's addition of former Mets executive Tommy Tanous as an assistant general manager.
  • Levin will serve under president of baseball operations DePodesta and general manager Josh Byrnes as the Rockies add experienced voices across baseball operations.
  • Coverage frames the move as part of a wider modernization effort to expand staffing and infrastructure, reflected in recent coaching hires that grew the pitching department.
