Along with changes the Nationals made in the front office and scouting departments early this offseason, manager Davey Martinez decided to shake things up on Washington’s major league coaching staff.
Tim Bogar, who came on as a First Base coach, and served as Martinez’s Bench Coach, Pat Roessler, an Assistant Hitting coach, Gary DiSarcina, the Third Base coach, and Eric Young, Jr., the First Base coach, did not have their contracts with the club renewed.
Ricky Gutierrez, who served as the Run Prevention Coordinator last season, got promoted to the role of Third Base coach.
