Tigers set to hire Rich Dubee as new pitching coach, per report

Dubee has a long history of success in his 13 years as a pitching coach.

After 28 years in baseball, long-time Detroit Tigers pitching coach Jeff Jones announced his retirement. A week and a half later following a search for a new one, the Tigers have reportedly found their man. Rich Dubee is set to become the new pitching coach, according to MLB.com's Jason Beck.

Dubee has served in the capacity of a pitching coach or coordinator for 13 years. He's spent the last two seasons with the Atlanta Braves as their minor league pitching coordinator and before was the pitching coach for the Philadelphia Phillies for nine years.
