The San Diego Padres reportedly hired Jayce Tingler as their new manager Thursday, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan.
Tingler, 38, is a former minor leaguer who was hired as the Texas Rangers' major league field coordinator in 2015. Tingler then spent time as an assistant general manager for the Rangers before becoming interim bench coach late in the 2018 season following the firing of manager Jeff Banister.
During the 2019 season, Tingler served as the Rangers' Major League Player Development Field Coordinator.
To date, Tingler's only managerial experience is as the manager of Leones del Escogido in the 2019 Dominican Winter League.
