Danny spent the three of the past four seasons as Pitching Coach for the White Sox Winston-Salem affiliate, and was promoted last season in the same role for Birmingham. The move to Seattle is a promotion to the Major League level, where he will serve as pitching strategist and assistant pitching coach.

Most Sox fans probably remember him for sniffing out the Astros trash can scheme on September 22, 2017, and then having a brain hemorrhage on April 20, 2018. He missed the remainder of the season but returned to baseball for a Yankees affiliate the following season, making two appearances before being released and retiring August 1, 2019 as a player.

 

 

 

Obviously had a much longer history/connection with the Mariners.

Parts of three seasons, and it was where he kicked off his MLB career.

 

And the writing was already pretty much on the wall with Bannister brought in and Katz retained.

Needed that Royals' connection to secure his position and/or a pay rise.

 

It was a very heartwarming story while it lasted with the Sox.

Really glad for him. Nice to hear some good news for a good man.

Good for Danny. I take it as a positive sign that someone Getz hired was wanted by another organization. 

His comeback was a great story. Best of luck to him.

Really good for him. And good for the Sox too, when was the last time a Sox assistant was poached by another team? Especially a forward thinking team like the Mariners. 

Getz Tree=1

Hahn/KW= -8

I can't remember,  was the game stopped when he went down in the dugout? I would hope so
