Earlier today, Chris Woodward was introduced as the next manager of the Texas Rangers. With Woodward getting picked off the Dodgers’ coaching staff, the Dodgers will now need to find their next third base coach. Woodward had been with the Dodgers since Dave Roberts was hired in 2016.
While Woodward is often brought up in the infamous game five of the 2017 World Series for his miscommunication with Chris Taylor, that is definitely not how Chris Woodward should be remembered. Woodward did great work with the Dodgers infielders especially on the defensive side of things.
Corey Seager has seen his defense improve in recent years after working with Chris Woodward.
