Blue Jays: Pete Walker reportedly likely to return as pitching coach

Though there was initially some doubt as to whether or not the rest of the coaching staff would return next season for the Toronto Blue Jays, a new report appears to have shed at least some light as to the future of one of the staff’s longest-tenured members.

Pete Walker, who has served as the pitching coach since 2012, is “very likely” to be back to finish up the final year of his contract, per Steve Phillips of TSN. Phillips also notes that an extension for Walker wouldn’t be surprising given the current status of his job.
