CARLSBAD, Calif. -- The Cubs have made it clear they're looking for more pitching this offseason. They also could be looking for a new pitching coach if Jim Hickey doesn't return.
The Cubs have yet to announce their 2019 coaching staff, with the exception of new hitting coach Anthony Iapoce, who is replacing Chili Davis after he was dismissed at the end of the season.
At the GM Meetings in Carlsbad, Calif., on Wednesday, Cubs president of baseball operations Theo Epstein was asked about Hickey's status and said he was not able to address it at this point.
