Timeline

1946

Prior to his hiring, the Tigers had missed the playoffs in fourteen consecutive seasons, and had just four playoff appearances in the 60 season stretch from 1946 to 2005.

1956

David Dombrowski (born July 27, 1956) is an American baseball executive who serves as the president of baseball operations for the Philadelphia Phillies of Major League Baseball (MLB).

Dombrowski also previously served as the general manager of the Montreal Expos, the general manager and president of the Florida Marlins and Detroit Tigers, and president of baseball operations for the Boston Red Sox.

1978

Dombrowski began his career with the Chicago White Sox in 1978, as an administrative assistant in their minor league organization.

Dombrowski assumed the general manager's role himself, becoming the first person to serve as both president and GM for the Tigers since Jim Campbell held both titles from 1978 to 1983.

1984

The manager was Alan Trammell, a popular ex-Tiger player who had been the 1984 World Series MVP.

1986

He moved up the ladder to assistant general manager to Roland Hemond by his late 20s, but was purged during Ken Harrelson's one-year reign in 1986 as the White Sox front-office boss.

1988

Dombrowski joined the Montreal Expos front office as director of player development for the 1987 season under Bill Stoneman, and on July 5, 1988, he became, at age 31, Montreal's general manager—the youngest in MLB at the time.

Dombrowski built up the Expos farm system during his term.

He drafted, among others, Rondell White and Cliff Floyd.

The team enjoyed .500 or better seasons in 1988–90 but struggled on the field in 1991.

1991

One of those teams, the Florida Marlins, recruited Dombrowski to become its first general manager; he was appointed on September 19, 1991.

Dombrowski spent about a decade in Miami, working under owners H. Wayne Huizenga and John W. Henry.

1993

Concurrently, the National League expanded to 14 teams, with two new franchises to begin play in 1993.

1996

In 1996, he hired Jim Leyland to manage the team; they had previously worked together for the White Sox in the early 1980s, with Dombrowski as assistant general manager and Leyland as third base coach.

1997

He has helped build four different franchises (Marlins, Tigers, Red Sox, Phillies) into pennant-winning teams, and he has won the World Series twice — with the Marlins in 1997 and the Red Sox in 2018.

Although Dombrowski built a sound minor league system, the Marlins achieved their first great success—the NL pennant and 1997 World Series title—with a team composed of many high-salaried players signed as free agents.

The following year, Dombrowski presided over Huizenga's mandated fire sale of those veteran players, and the Marlins failed to reach a .500 winning percentage in each of Dombrowski's final four years with the franchise.

2001

In November 2001, Dombrowski left Florida to become the president of the Detroit Tigers.

2002

Nevertheless, after Henry sold the club in early 2002, the Marlins managed to rebuild behind a nucleus of young players, and the following season, with a roster consisting chiefly of players Dombrowski had acquired, the team won the 2003 World Series.

For the 2002 season, his first with the Tigers after being hired by owner Mike Ilitch, Dombrowski was to serve as president and chief executive officer of the rebuilding Tigers.

Incumbent general manager Randy Smith would continue in his role, reporting to Dombrowski.

However, when Detroit lost its first six games in 2002, Dombrowski quickly fired both Smith and manager Phil Garner.

2003

In 2003, the Tigers lost an American League-record 119 games, one fewer than the modern MLB record set by the 1962 New York Mets.

2006

Three years later, the 2006 Tigers, led by manager Jim Leyland, won their first AL pennant since their championship season of 1984.

Along the way, they won the AL wild card, defeated the favored New York Yankees in four games in the 2006 American League Division Series (ALDS), then swept the Oakland Athletics in the 2006 American League Championship Series (ALCS).

In the 2006 World Series, they were defeated in five games by the St. Louis Cardinals.

Dombrowski was subsequently named Executive of the Year by Baseball America.

In addition to bringing Leyland out of semi-retirement, Dombrowski presided over the acquisition and development of a corps of hard-throwing young pitchers, and signed free agents such as catcher Iván Rodríguez, left-handed pitcher Kenny Rogers, and outfielder Magglio Ordóñez.

2011

In fourteen years with Tigers organization, Dombrowski led the Tigers to five playoff appearances, four consecutive American League Central division titles, four American League Championship Series appearances, including three consecutive ALCS appearances from 2011 to 2013, and two AL pennants, in 2006 and 2012.

2012

In 2012, the Tigers reached their second World Series under Dombrowski's tenure by defeating the Oakland Athletics in five games in the 2012 ALDS and sweeping the New York Yankees in the 2012 ALCS.

The Tigers were then swept by the San Francisco Giants in four straight games, losing the 2012 World Series.

2015

On August 4, 2015, Dombrowski was released by the Tigers, and was replaced by his former assistant general manager Al Avila.

On August 18, 2015, Dombrowski was named the president of baseball operations of the Boston Red Sox.

At the announcement of his hiring, the Red Sox also announced that general manager Ben Cherington would step down.

In September, Dombrowski filled Cherington's post with senior vice president Mike Hazen.

Dombrowski made his first significant trade for the Red Sox in November, when he acquired closer Craig Kimbrel from the San Diego Padres for four prospects.

He also signed high-profile free agent pitcher David Price to a seven-year, $217 million contract.

2016

In Dombrowski's first full season with the team, the 2016 Red Sox won 93 regular-season games and the American League East division title, but were swept in the 2016 American League Division Series by the eventual AL champions, the Cleveland Indians.

In mid-October, Hazen resigned from the Red Sox to take an expanded role as executive vice president and general manager of the Arizona Diamondbacks.
