For the first time since taking the helm as Los Angeles Dodgers manager, Dave Roberts saw significant overturn to his coaching staff. Dino Ebel was among the new hires prior to the 2019 season, filling the void as third base coach.
The position was previously held by Chris Woodward, who was hired away to become manager of the Texas Rangers. Beyond his duties on the bases, Woodward was lauded for his work with the infielders and ability to connect with all players on the roster.
A former member of the Dodgers organization as a player and Minor League coach and manager, Ebel has quickly won over the clubhouse with his infectious energy and deft decision-making.
