The Los Angeles Dodgers’ High-A affiliate Great Lakes Loons announced their coaching staff for the 2021 season, and they will be led by first-year manager Austin Chubb.
Chubb is the team’s ninth manager since its inception in 2007, and he will be the first former player of the team to manage them. The 31-year-old originally was a draft pick of the Washington Nationals in 2012, playing in 91 Minor League games before transitioning into coaching.
He has coached in the Dodgers organization since 2016, guiding Rookie-level Ogden to a franchise-best 54-22 record in 2019, earning Pioneer League Manager of the Year honors.
