The former general manager of the Cincinnati Reds, serving from February 2006 until April 2008, and was a special assistant to the GM and a Major League scout for the Minnesota Twins.
The most prominent transactions Krivsky made were the acquisition of Boston right-handed pitcher Bronson Arroyo for outfielder Wily Mo Peña.
Another significant Krivsky trade brought Cleveland Indians infielder Brandon Phillips to the Reds for a player to be named later.
The most controversial trade of Krivsky's tenure was on July 13, 2006, and sent outfielder Austin Kearns, shortstop Felipe López, and right-hander Ryan Wagner to the Washington Nationals for right-hander Gary Majewski, left-hander Bill Bray, shortstop Royce Clayton and minor-leaguers Brendan Harris and Daryl Thompson.
He played a key role in the trade of catcher Ramón Hernández to Krivsky's former team, the Reds, in return for utility player Ryan Freel.
