The first big move new GM Billy Eppler pulled off was the firing of pitching coach Mike Butcher; a move that quickly gained him hero status in the eyes of many a Halos fan.

One name of interest to fill Mike Butcher's shoes and that will most likely garner some attention from the Angels is another pitching coach named Mike. Mike Maddux, to be exact, of the Texas Rangers.
