With the 2018 season on the horizon, the Astros have announced the minor league managers and staff for all the minor league affiliates. Some have changed, some have moved up, and some familiar faces will be in the system.
AAA: Fresno Grizzlies
Rodney Linares was “promoted” from the Corpus Christi Hooks up to the Fresno Grizzlies for the 2018 season. He was the manager for the Hooks for the last three years and was named Texas League Manager of the Year in 2015. Dyar Miller will be the pitching coach for the third year in a row with Darryl Robinson returning as the hitting coach.
