Pitching Coach and Bench Coach

Featured Replies

Alright, time to move on to our next hire.  Who will we hire to be the pitching coach? How about Bench Coach?

Harold was all over this.  He also hinted that Hahn didn't want TLR but was told he could have his choice as a pitching coach as a sort of "consolation". 

So who will it be?

    I'm sorry but a GM firing a manager is not a power grab. That's utterly ridiculous.

    If I’m Hahn, I’m pushing to keep Menechino, Coolbaugh, & Hasler in their current roles.  I’d also be pushing for Zaleski as pitching coach and a younger guy of my choice as bench coach and future

  • Hahn can watch but he has to sit in the corner

I'm betting that Hahn isn't going to be able to pick LaRussa's pitching coach. LaRussa probably has more power than Hahn at this point.

@Harold's Leg Lift, need your input here.

Also, I'm going to add Bench Coach to this discussion.

Baines as bench coach

I bet Dave Duncan returns too

I went to a charity luncheon last year with all sox HOFers. Raines, Baines, Fisk, Thome, La Russa and Thomas couldn't make it.

That's our coaching staff I'd bet.

Jose Canseco for hitting coach, that's all i know. Mark Mcgwire bench coach

he can bring in a slew of old cardinals just to further infuriate the cub media that has fomented the hate against this move

Hitting coach my ass, I want him to be our right fielder now.

I want tony to demand all his coaches take roids and get s w o l l as possible.

Done and done!

Bench coach? Guess I'm out of the loop, what happened to McEwing?

They've already ruled him out.

I think Hahn will be able to name the pitching coach.  I haven't heard any names but would like to see it go to Hasler.

You don't have to be cub fan to hate the cardinals. If I wanted to attend a kkk rally I'd just go to a cardinals game. Probably listen to a TLR interview on the way.

Thanks for chiming in. Also, I really hope you're right in that this TLR hire means JR will be opening up the checkbook.

They almost have to have a young person as a bench coach if they have any care about a succession plan.

Not to have one would be unwise in this circumstance

I get why you say this but this is kinda overboard for me. There are plenty of managers they could plug in. Look at what Dusty just did. It's not like there's a bunch of proprietary stuff only he could know like the recipe of cocacola ors omething.

This.  I fully expect an exciting up and coming bench coach who will take over for TLR in a couple years.  This guy isn't going to manage more than a couple seasons.

Don't get your hopes up.
