The Indians coaching staff is now set for 2021, manager Terry Francona announced Monday. The majority will be the same as we’ve seen the last couple years, but with Brad Mills stepping away from his role as bench coach the Tribe have tapped DeMarlo Hale as his replacement.
We have hired DeMarlo Hale as our bench coach.
DeMarlo spent time under Terry Francona as a first base coach and a bench coach in Boston.
