Changes in Jackson

[jaxxradio]

There will be wholesale changes to the Diamond Jaxx coaching staff. Big announcement will be made at some point this week. Check the Diamond Jaxx website (http://www.diamondjaxx.com) in the next day or two for the big story.

Thanks for the heads up. It will be interesting to see what's going on.

Maybe Dusty will be their new manager.

Is this what you're referring to?

 

Former West Tenn (AA) manager Bobby Dickerson has been promoted to infield/bunting coordinator.

 

Here are the revised Minor League staff assignments:

 

West Tenn (AA): Pat Listach (manager), Mike Anderson (pitching coach), Tom Beyers (hitting coach), Matt Johnson (trainer).

 

From Cubs.com

 

By the way, going from manager to bunting coordinator doesn't sound like too great of a promotion.

Bingo has been called.. I can't get anything passed you guys..

How about this for a conspiracy theory. Dickerson is up to gain experience in the bigs, he then takes over next year and with the arrival of Pie comes Joshua?Sp? as Hitting coach. That would be bye bye to dusty and the rest of the goons?? guess i'm just hoping........

Hey Ron, good to see you online. Hopefully all of the junk is over and we can start looking forward to Diamond Jaxx baseball!

Is Von Joshua with Iowa now? He's still in the system, right?

He'll be at AAA with Alan Dunn, who was also promoted from AA.

That'd be it. I do have some rookie cards of him as we type.

bunting coordinator? classic - especially for this forum!

[NCCubFan]

Listach was acting manager at Iowa for the last couple of months of 2002. He was serving as hitting coach under Bruce Kimm and took over as manager when Kimm replaced Don Baylor as Cubs manager.
