(Arizona Sports) D-backs make multiple coaching changes to start offseason
Buchanan reports that catching coach Robby Hammock’s contract was not renewed, bench coach Luis Urueta was given an MLB staff position, pitching coach Matt Herges was offered a different role within the organization and both hitting coaches — Rick Short and Drew Hedman — will not return to the position.
First base coach Dave McKay, third base coach Tony Perezchica and bullpen coach Mike Fetters will return to work under manager Torey Lovullo, who last month had his contract extended through next season.
The offseason roster shuffle has begun in the desert.
