Montoyo, Blue Jays announce coaching staff

TORONTO -- Blue Jays manager Charlie Montoyo unveiled his coaching staff on Tuesday night and it includes a mix of familiar faces and newcomers to the organization.

The returnees include pitching coach Pete Walker and third-base coach Luis Rivera. Hitting coach Guillermo Martinez and Major League coach John Schneider received internal promotions, while first-base coach Mark Budzinski joined Toronto after a stint in Cleveland.

The other hires were Matt Buschmann as bullpen coach and Shelley Duncan as Major League field coordinator. Bench coach Dave Hudgens was previously announced earlier this month as part of Montoyo's first coaching staff at the big league level.
