What Stephen Vogt Is Looking For In Guardians’ New Coaching Staff
This offseason, the Cleveland Guardians have considerably revamped their coaching staff from a season ago.
First and foremost, the team announced the hiring of Stephen Vogt as its managerial successor to future Hall-of-Famer Terry Francona on November 6th.
The Guardians then announced the hiring of Craig Albernaz as their Major League Field Coordinator four days later.
With these new additions, however, came some subtractions.
Just two days ago, Cleveland announced the departures of bench coach DeMarlo Hale, third base coach Mike Sarbaugh, bullpen coach Rigo Beltran, and replay coordinator Mike Barnett.
With these departures, the Guardians have multiple coaching vacancies to fill before the 2024 season begins.
Earlier today, in an interview on the MLB Network show High Heat, Vogt discussed what he is looking for in Cleveland’s coaching staff as the team rounds it out.
