The 2018 regular season might technically not be over - the play-in games today still count - but the D-backs have already begun to make moves. They’ve announced that almost all the coaching staff have been retained, and will be back in 2019. Here’s the list of those returning, as announced by the team this morning:
- Mike Butcher (pitching coach)
- Mike Fetters (bullpen)
- Dave McKay (first base)
- Jerry Narron (bench)
- Tony Perezchica (third base)
- Luis Urueta (coach)
There is, obviously, one significant name missing from that list, as the follow-up Tweet below made clear:
The #Dbacks have mutually parted ways with Hitting Coach Dave Magadan.
