On November 17, the Miami Marlins announced their 2022 major league coaching staff. The most experienced new addition to the staff is Al Pedrique, who will take over as the club’s 3rd base and infield coach (replacing Trey Hillman).
In 2021, Pedrique served as manager of the AAA Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp. He led them to a 75-55 record with a roster that at various times included Edward Cabrera, Jesús Sánchez, Lewin Díaz, Bryson Brigman, Olympic silver medalist Eddy Alvarez, and for the final stretch of the season, Max Meyer and Peyton Burdick. But now, he’s back at the highest level to help Miami win as many games as possible next season.
