Well wonder no more as the LA Angels have fired pitching coach Doug White and bench coach Josh Paul. These moves were announced in an official press release Tuesday afternoon. This is no surprise as most new managers who come in want to bring their own staff with them.
Doug White was brought in to help a pitching staff that had been decimated by injuries and also general ineffectiveness. The results were not good. The pitchers again were saddled with multiple injuries as none of the starting rotation that began the season finished it. Tyler Skaggs, Chris Stratton, Trevor Cahill, and Matt Harvey were all no longer part of the rotation by mid-season.
