According to an industry source, the Orioles are hiring Quincy Boyd as an area scout.

Boyd has served as a national scouting supervisor with the Red Sox since February 2018. He was promoted to regional crosschecker in December 2012 after working as an area scout for North Carolina and South Carolina since 2007. He also was a scout for the club in the Midwest region in 2006.

Perhaps the biggest score of Boyd’s tenure was signing outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr., a first-round selection in the 2011 First-Year Player Draft out of the University of South Carolina.

Why would a national scouting supervisor with the Red Sox take a job as an area scout with the O's?  Wouldn't that be a step down?

Sounds like an inflated title
