Anthony Iapoce has been the Chicago Cubs’ hitting coach for the last three seasons, hired October 15, 2018 just after that disappointing season ended.
It is, I think, a commentary on the lack of impact he had on Cubs hitters that the only photos I have available to me of Iapoce in a Cubs uniform are the ones taken on team photo day in Spring Training, such as the one above.
And now, per this report, he’s gone:
Anthony Iapoce is not expected to return as Chicago Cubs hitting coach, according to sources familiar with the situation.
