The band is slowly starting to get back together. Just days after the San Diego Padres announced the hiring of first-year manager Jayce Tingler, the new head man in America’s Finest City has started to form his team of coaches to help him lead a young and exciting group at Petco Park, including two former Baltimore Orioles coaches.
According to MLB.com’s AJ Cassavell, Tingler is hiring former Baltimore Orioles third base coach (among various titles held in the organization) Bobby Dickerson to be his bench coach in San Diego. Dickerson isn’t the only former Orioles’ coach to join Tinger’s staff.
