White Sox add Willie Harris as minor league coach

Aaron Rowand has company in the coaching ranks as the White Sox have hired former 2005 teammate Willie Harris to be a hitting coach.

Harris, who played for the White Sox from 2002-05, will begin his coaching career at Advanced Rookie Great Falls. Earlier this offseason, the White Sox announced that Rowand would assume the role of minor-league outfield and baserunning coordinator.

The franchise also announced that five of its minor-league managers are set to return this season.

Julio Vinas has been named manager at Triple-A Charlotte after spending the previous three season at Double-A Birmingham.
