Hitting coach Hensley Meulens named Giants' bench coach

SAN FRANCISCO -- The San Francisco Giants have moved hitting coach Hensley Meulens to bench coach on Bruce Bochy's staff, having previously reassigned pitching coach Dave Righetti to the front office last week in a major reshuffling following a last-place finish in the NL West.

Former bench coach Ron Wotus is going to third base coach, while Matt Herges is the new bullpen coach. First base coach Jose Alguacil will stay in his spot, the team said Thursday while also announcing Phil Nevin won't be back.

Righetti is now a special assistant to general manager Bobby Evans.
