Cardinals are bringing back Shildt's coaching staff, Maddux and Albert included, for 2021

ARLINGTON, TEXAS — As they begin preparing for the offseason and engineering their team for the 2021 season, the Cardinals have elected to bring back all of the coaches on Mike Shildt's staff.

Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak confirmed the return of the coaches when asked by the Post-Dispatch. A formal announcement of the staff is expected after the World Series.

The Cardinals' offense has been under scrutiny for the previous two seasons under the guidance of hitting coach Jeff Albert. The Cardinals have invested in Albert and his philosophy, not only putting him in charge of the major-league offense but also asking him to be the architect of an over-arching organizational hitting approach.
