The Nationals did not only part ways with manager Matt Williams on Monday morning, they let go of their entire coaching staff.
That list includes bench coach Randy Knorr, pitching coach Steve McCatty, hitting coach Rick Schu, first base coach Tony Tarasco, third base coach Bob Henley, defensive coordinator Mark Weidemaier and bullpen coach Matt LeCroy. All had contracts that were not renewed by the team.
That, however, is not to say none of them will return. GM Mike Rizzo announced on Monday that he has offered jobs to several of the assistant coaches to rejoin the team in different capacities.
