It isn’t just the players who are ramping up their preparations for Spring Training and the 2018 season. For three days, members of the Major League coaching staff met at Safeco Field to lay the groundwork for Peoria’s practices.
On this week’s episode of The Wheelhouse, recorded on Wednesday, Jerry Dipoto discussed why they hold the meetings and what’s being covered.
Meetings started [Tuesday] with our pitching people — Brian DeLunas, our new bullpen coach; Jim Brower, our second pitching coach; Mel Stottlemyre; Scott; our analytics crew and our advanced scouting crew are all taking part in the meetings the last 24 hours.
