Moore, Anderson hired

by Adam J. Morris on Oct 22, 2008 3:30 PM CDT

Per the S-T, the Rangers have hired Jackie Moore and Dave Anderson as bench coach and third base coach.

Pitching coach and bullpen coach is still up in the air, which makes me thinks someone really likes Mike Maddux (as he's the pitching coach candidate they are still trying to interview with).

glad we stayed away from that, although that decision might have already been made.

and, it’s going to be really awkward to try to hire peterson after making these somewhat public overtures for maddux

Maddux

Can he bring a replica of his brother at 28 years old with him?

I'd be happy

if he could just bring his brother as the bullpen coach.

Yes

Although Randy Johnson went pretty well with the D’Backs.

Why all the love for Mike Maddux?

Does he have ties to NR, or something?

Mike Maddux

He has a reputation as an excellent pitching coach, every bit as good as Peterson, IMO.

What does NeRa

have to do with anything?

Was Wash included

in this interview process? Guess not since he pushed to get his last bench coach that they cut loose. You’d think the manager would want to pick his staff, but then again he tried that.
