Brad Taylor promoted to President and GM; Alan Ledford named Senior Advisor

MountainStar Sports Group elevated Brad Taylor to president and general manager of the Triple-A El Paso Chihuahuas in an organizational announcement on February 24, 2026. The owner/operator of the El Paso club made the move public two days ago, positioning Taylor as the named leader of the franchise’s business and baseball operations through his combined titles.

The same announcement confirmed that Alan Ledford will move into a senior advisor role with the Chihuahuas. Ledford’s new title signals a change in day-to-day leadership while keeping an experienced executive attached to the club’s decision-making structure under MountainStar Sports Group ownership.

MountainStar Sports Group identified the shifts as a leadership transition for its El Paso operation, with the organization retaining both executives under new responsibilities. The promotion of Taylor and the advisory assignment for Ledford take place within the framework of MountainStar’s stewardship of the Triple-A Chihuahuas and affect the franchise headquartered in El Paso.

The timing of the February 24, 2026 announcement comes as the Chihuahuas continue offseason preparations under Triple-A status, with Brad Taylor now listed as the club’s president and general manager and Alan Ledford serving as senior advisor to the organization. The change formalizes the front-office titles that will guide the Chihuahuas into the upcoming portion of the baseball calendar under MountainStar Sports Group.
