Bench coach Don Wakamatsu and hitting coach Luis Ortiz will not be returning to the Rangers coaching staff in 2022, the Texas Rangers announced today. Assistant hitting coach Callix Crabbe and run production coordinator Alex Burg have been told whether they will stay on will be determined by the next hitting coach, and they have been given permission to seek other opportunities. The remainder of the staff has been asked to return, per the beats.
I don’t really have much of a basis for an opinion on what kind of job any of the coaches do, so I’m not really in position to say one way or the other whether these moves are good or bad, or if other coaches should stay or go.
