Pirates Hire Matt Hague As Their New Hitting Coach

The Pittsburgh Pirates have hired Matt Hague to be their next hitting coach, according to Scott Mitchell of CSN. Hague was the assistant hitting coach for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2024, after three years as a hitting coach in their minor league system.

Hague was originally drafted by the Pirates in the 9th round of the 2008 draft, and made his Major League debut with the club in 2012. He spent parts of three seasons and 91 plate appearances in the Majors between the Pirates and Blue Jays, eventually ending his playing career following the 2018 season.
