Angel minor league director Jeff Parker resigned Monday.
With Bavasi and Parker gone, the jobs of assistant general manager Ken Forsch and scouting director Bob Fontaine Jr. remain in jeopardy.
Parker said he was in negotiations to become the general manager of a minor league team.
Parker, 29, joined the Angels as a batboy and clubhouse attendant in 1986. Bavasi, then the minor league director, hired Parker as an administrative assistant in 1990.

Those teams, considered among the favorites for the Louis Vuitton Cup, trounced their opponents in the morning races, each winning by more than 14 minutes.
The series will decide which team will take on defender New Zealand in February 2000.
