Robert Van Scoyoc Expected To Remain Dodgers Hitting Coach
The Los Angeles Dodgers entered the offseason expecting all of their coaching staff to return for the 2027 season, but those plans were upended on Friday when it was revealed hitting coach Aaron Bates will not be with the organization moving forward.
The Dodgers and Bates could not reach an agreement on a new contract, so the two sides decided to move on.
Despite that change to part of their hitting coach duo, the Dodgers are still expecting Robert Van Scoyoc to remain in his role as one of the hitting coaches for the 2027 season, according to Jack Harris of the California Post.
Van Scoyoc, meanwhile, is still expected to return next season, according to a source.
