Mariners finalizes big league coaching staff: adding Casey Candaele first base coach and Mike Hampton as bullpen coach
Manager Scott Servais has filled the final two open positions on his big league coaching staff. On Monday, the Mariners announced that former big leaguers Casey Candaele and Mike Hampton – a one-time Mariners’ prospect – have been hired to serve as the first base coach and bullpen coach, respectively.
Neither Candaele nor Hampton has big league coaching experience, but they have coached in the minor leagues. They’ll join Tim Bogar (bench coach), Edgar Martinez (hitting coach), Mel Stottlemyre Jr. (pitching coach) and Manny Acta (third base coach) on Servais’ staff.
