Formerly known as the New Orleans Zephyrs, the team held a “name-the-team” contest in 2016, rebranding as the Baby Cakes moving forward.

Based In: Employee Previous Count: Provider: Louisiana 90-100 LIFE BEFORE NETCHEX Before the New Orleans Baby Cakes made the switch to Netchex in 2017, they were processing their payroll fully in-house. In addition, they were utilizing Paychex to track and manage their time and attendance, which means the ability to integrate the two separated systems was non-existent. The amount of wasted time they were spending dealing with manual, error-prone processes and sitting on the phone with unresponsive Paychex support teams had them looking for a single-source solution that combined all of their payroll and HR solutions into one integrated system - and they hit a grand slam with Netchex. ☑ Payroll + Tax ☑ Time & Attendance ☑ Employee Self-Service ☑ NetRecruiter ☑ Manager Self-Service ☑ E-Verify ☑ NetGuide ☑ ACA Central Netchex Services: ☑ NetInsight WHY WE WERE (AND ARE) THE BEST SOLUTION Netchex’s time and attendance platform lets the New Orleans Baby Cakes manage their employees easily and effectively.

  • Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings December 27, 2017
    Cincinnati Reds Press Clippings December 27, 2017 THIS DAY IN REDS HISTORY 1957-Powel Crosley, Jr. acknowledges the possibility the Reds may leave Cincinnati MLB.COM Reds sign reliever Hughes to 2-year deal By Daniel Kramer MLB.com @DKramer_ Dec. 26th, 2017 Right-handed reliever Jared Hughes is joining the Reds on a two-year deal, the club announced Tuesday. The deal is worth $2.125 million for both 2018 and '19, with a $3 million option for '20 that comes with a $250,000 buyout, according to SB Nation. Hughes, 32, was non-tendered by the Brewers earlier this month to avoid his salary increase through arbitration. Brewers general manager David Stearns indicated the club was interested in bringing him back free of the arbitration parameters after Hughes posted a 3.02 ERA in 59 2/3 innings last season. Instead, the right-hander will receive the financial cushion of being locked up through at least his first year of free agency in 2019, and he will join his third team in the National League Central. Hughes pitched six seasons for the Pirates, including three postseason runs from 2013-15, with a 2.82 ERA, before he was released on the final day of Spring Training last season. For his career, Hughes is 20-16 with a 2.85 ERA over 369 innings in 380 outings, having primarily been a setup man -- which could be the role he'll fill in Cincinnati. Reds relievers last year compiled a 4.65 ERA, the fourth-worst in the Majors, while also pitching 610 innings, the second-most, thanks in large part to instability within their starting rotation.
