Anybody know of any good available pitching coaches🤔🤦🏻‍♂️

Obviously the Callaway situation has bigger implications and issues than this, but it will be something the Angels need to address.

Perhaps they just promote Matt Wise, who is the bullpen coach. Another avenue could be Mike Butcher, who has a relationship with Joe Maddon and was rumored to be in the mix for the job previously.

Regardless of who it is, they really need to vet the new PC and any future employees. What happened is unacceptable.

AngelsWin needs more emojis in their thread titles.

[ScottT]

I don't.

[Stradling]

Look at pitching coaches with ties to Maddon. Or possibly ties to Minasian.

Ummm... Butcher was let go by the Angels in 2015

Clearly, the Angels should hire a woman. Preferably, a minority woman.

AOC would be perfect. Would probably flip some tables and publicly chew out players on Twitter after a bad performance, much to the delight of Angelswin

What about Mark Gubicza? The guy knows our staff and comments on stuff that he sees during the telecasts all the time when a pitcher is doing something right/wrong.

This way we get a brand new tandem for televised broadcasts.

Imagine him with Trevor Bauer. Percy would end up punching him in the face.

I know. But that was also a different regime. It's probably going to be Maddon's hire, and Butcher has been Maddon's pitching coach before, so I'd assume he's an option.

I think that's a tough transition for him to make. Especially since ST literally starts in like two weeks.

One somewhat outside the box idea would be Dominic Chiti, who Perry Minasian brought in as a Special Assistant. Chiti was a bullpen coach for three major league teams in the past. Perhaps they just promote Matt Wise to pitching coach and move Chiti to bullpen coach.

[BTH]

Time is a major factor in this, as ST is scheduled to start very soon. That's why Matt Wise may be the logical option since, as bullpen coach, he's been in communication with Angels pitchers throughout the offseason. I wouldn't be surprised to see Wise as pitching coach and Buddy Carlyle as bullpen coach.

Butcher was also Maddon’s pitching coach one year in Tampa. He interviewed for the job before Callaway was hired. 

[Cosmo_Kramer]

Can Bauer double as the pitching coach?

[Robrock30]

Call Pedro Martinez

Wise would be a great choice.

I would fit right in with my 3 fingers....

You know a distant relative Harry Chiti was the only player traded for himself. April 25, 1962 Chiti was traded by Indians to Mets for a player to be named later. June 15 Mets sent Chiti back to Cleveland. He was the player to be named later.

How about me?

[Hubs]

Weaver said he’d do it, thrice.

 

[Dtwncbad]

Weaver would probably be really really good at it until he suddenly completely sucked at it.
