Another year, another change to the Cubs coaching staff on the hitting side.
You knew it was coming, didn’t you? In what has become an annual tradition, the Chicago Cubs have made a change on their coaching staff, deciding to part ways with assistant hitting coach Terrmel Sledge.
The former big league outfielder’s two-year deal ran through the 2020 season, giving the front office the perfect out to try a new face with hitting coach Anthony Iapoce, who is expected to return for the final year of his deal in 2021.
