The Rundown: Cubs Dismiss Several Coaches, Offseason Plans Hinge on Bellinger, Rose Passes Away, Postseason Field Set

“I’m walking down the line that divides me somewhere in my mind. On the borderline of the edge, and where I walk alone.” – Green Day, Boulevard of Broken Dreams

ESPN’s Jesse Rogers reported yesterday that long-time first base coach Mike Napoli is out, as are hitting instructor James Adduci and bullpen coach Darren Holmes. The ink was barely dry on the 2024 season when the announcement was made.
