AZ Phi: any comments on the Extended Spring Training manager/coaches? I'm not familiar with any of them. Are any of them holdovers from pre-Epstein era?

Submitted by Cubster on Sun, 04/20/2014 - 04:41 am

AZ Phil: I am not familiar with any of the manager/coaches at EST. Are they all new to the organization and is anyone a holdover from before Theo/Ged/McLeod took over?

CUBSTER:

Jesus Feliciano is the new hitting & outfield coach at Boise (replacing Bill Buckner, who retired prior to the start of Minor League Camp). Feliciano was a minor league OF for many seasons and with a number of different organizations (was a player-coach in the Mexican League last season).

Brian Lawrence (ex MLB RHP with SD and NYM) is the new pitching coach at Boise (was previously a minor league pitching coach with SD).

Guillermo Martinez is the infield & baserunning and assistant hitting coach at Boise (was previously a minor league hitting coach with TOR).

Jimmy Gonzalez is te new manager at AZL Cubs (he was the AZL Cubs infield & baserunning and assistant hitting coach last season).

Anderson Tavares is the pitching coach at AZL Cubs (same as last year - long-time Cubs minor league RHP & then a pitching coach with DSL Cubs for several seasons after that).

Ricardo Medina is the hitting coach at AZL Cubs (same as last year - long tiime Cubs minor league 1B & then a hitting coach for several seasons with AZL Cubs, Boise, and Peoria).

Osmin Melindes is the infield & baserunning and assistant hitting coach at AZL Cubs (he was VSL Cubs manager last year, and previously was Director of the Pirates Venezuelan Academy for several years).

Rick Tronerud is the Rehab Pitching Coach. He works with injured pitchers who are assigned to the Cubs Under Armour Performance Center at Riverview Park. He had a lengthy career as a minor league RHP in the Oakland A's organization (broke-in with Chet Lemon and Claudell Washington in the Northwest League back when actor Kurt Russell was playing 2B with the Angels NWL affiliate there), and then he was an A's minor league pitching coach for about 15 years, and after that he joined the Cubs and he has been a Cubs minor league pitching coach at various levels (including AAA Iowa, but mostly AZL Cubs) for almost 20 years.  

Boise manager Gary Van Tol was at Riverview Park for a while, but he also is a scout for the Cubs, so he is not at EXST at this time (he lives in Boise).

Hi Arizona Phil, What happened to Frandy de la Rosa who was also in the same scary car accident as Kevin Encarnacion? Thanks!

Submitted by Arizona Phil on Mon, 04/21/2014 - 04:54 am

RAISIN: As far as I know, Frandy de la Rosa is presently back at the Cubs Dominican Academy. There may be some legal issues pending related to the off-seson car crash and/or the Cubs want him to play in the DSL this season. 

CUBS LATIN AMERICAN AFFILIATES   

LATIN AMERICAN FIELD COORDINATOR:
Carmelo Martinez

NOTE: Latin American Cubs minor leaguers who do not attend Minor League Camp in Arizona have their Spring Training at the Cubs Dominican Academy beginning in April. Players who have Spring Training at the Dominican Academy are eventually assigned to one of the two Cubs Latin American affiliates (DSL Cubs or VSL Cubs) when they commence league play in May (VSL Cubs on May 12th and DSL Cubs on May 31st).

    Jed has added Teheran, Tyranski, Kissaki, and now Straily and Nico Zeglin today.

    Zeglin is 24 yrs old. Pitched well at Long Beach St in '23 and well in some Indy Ball.

    They also added Reilly and Viets in late ST.

    Have to search for MiLB arm depth anywhere you can and at all times!!!

    25 in Attendance!!!

    Phil, is that a backfield record?

    Also, 6 BBs for Cruz in 2 IP. What's the most walks you've seen in one EXT ST outing that you can recall?

    He has a pulse. Apparently that’s the only requirement at this point.

    cubs sign dan straily...for some reason.  minor league deal.

    welcome back.

    zac rosscup is down in mexico trying to make it happen...maybe they could throw him a contract, too.  junior lake is his teammate.  shore up a bunch of holes with some washups.

    The great thing about going to live sports events is you don't know if you're going to see something historic. Today I went to the Cub game, after putting the liner back in my coat and fishing my Cubs knit hat out of the closet. I needed all that- my seats are in the upper deck, left, so the east wind was in my face. Both teams failed to capitalize on good situations, but both starters did a good job to accomplish this. So, we go to the bottom of the sixth inning. The Cubs tie it up, and then Pete Crow-Armstrong comes up. We all know he would still be in AAA if not for injuries, and future Hall-of-Famer Justin Verlander absolutely carved up the young fellow up in his first two plate appearances. So this time he hits a fly ball. The wind was blowing in and had suppressed several strong fly balls- including a rocket off Altuve's bat that Canario hauled in (does anybody else remind me of Jorge Soler?) , but the ball kept carrying and carrying. 107mph, legit angle and carry. The crowd went nuts, the dugout went nuts. Maybe, just maybe, I saw the first homer from a long-term Cub.

    Which was my original premise. They won the trades but lost their souls. They no longer employ the Cardinal way which had been so successful for so long.

  • crunch (view)

    STL traded away a lot of minor league talent that went on to do nothing in the arenado + goldschmidt trades.  neither guy blocked any of their minor league talent in the pipeline, too.  that's ideal places to add talent.

  • TarzanJoeWallis (view)

    Natural cycle of baseball. Pitching makes adjustments in approach to counter a hot young rookie. Now it’s time for Busch and his coaches to counter those adjustments. Busch is very good and will figure it out, I think sooner than later.

  • TarzanJoeWallis (view)

    In 2020, the pandemic year and the year before they acquired Arenado, the Cardinals finished second and were a playoff team. Of the 12 batters with 100 plate appearances, 8 of them were home grown. Every member of the starting rotation (if you include Wainwright) and all but one of the significant relievers were home grown. While there have been a relative handful of very good trades interspersed which have been mentioned, player development had been their predominant pattern for decades - ever since I became an aware fan in the ‘70’s

    The Arenado deal was not a deal made out of dire need or desperation. It was a splashy, headline making deal for a perennial playoff team intended to be the one piece that brought the Cardinals from a very good team to a World Series contender. They have continued to wheel and deal and have been in a slide ever since. I stand by my supposition that that deal marked a notable turning point within the organization. They broke what had been a very successful formula for a very long time.

    busch is having a really intense k-filled mini slump.  he deserves better after coming back to wrigley after that hot road trip.
