The former American baseball player, Chris Getz, married his wife, Nicole Korinek, on January 28, 2012. They together share three kids- two daughters and a son.
Belonging to the same state, Chris initially attended Wake Forest University for his undergraduate degree, while Nicole went to Michigan State University.
A year later, Chris transferred to the University of Michigan, where Korinek had also enrolled for her Master’s degree. So, they most probably met each other during their college years.
Christopher Ryan Getz, better known as Chris Getz, is currently the assistant general manager for the MLB’s Chicago White Sox.
He has looked after the club’s minor-league operations and player development program for the past seven years.
Amidst the new development involving the firing of the White Sox Vice President and general manager, the media is speculating that Chris could be the new GM of the club.
Similarly, Getz’s friend Dayton Moore is expected to join him in the new team.
Fed up with their bad performances over the years, the White Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf fired both V.P. Williams and GM Rick Hahn on August 22.
