The coaching staff around New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone will be a blend of new faces and old. Even before Boone was made the new skipper, the club announced Pitching Coach Larry Rothschild would be retained.
Word is also trickling in on other coaching positions with Bench Coach Rob Thomson joining the Philadelphia Phillies as their Bench Coach and Third Base Coach Joe Espada joining the Houston Astros as their Bench Coach.
MIKE HARKEY – BULLPEN COACH
Much like Tony Cloninger with Buck Showalter and Joe Torre, the team is set to announce Harkey will stay on with Boone after eight seasons on Joe Girardi’s staff.
