OC Register: Angels hire Barry Enright as pitching coach

[AngelsWin.com]

The Angels on Tuesday hired Barry Enright as their pitching coach, bringing to six staffers under new manager Ron Washington.

Enright spent the past two years as the Arizona Diamondbacks’ assistant pitching coach. Previously, he worked as a coach in the Arizona farm system.

He joins a staff that includes third-base coach Eric Young Sr., first-base coach Bo Porter, hitting coach Johnny Washington, infield coach Ryan Goins and catching coach Jerry Narron.

The Angels still need a bench coach, an assistant pitching coach and at least one more hitting coach.

Enright, 37, played at Pepperdine before beginning a career that included parts of four years in the majors. He pitched for the Angels in 2012 and 2013, working in a total of seven games.

From MLB Trade Rumors:

His time with the D-backs surely proved quite instructive, as Brent Strom (D-Backs pitching coach) is regarded as one of the industry’s top pitching minds.

Let's hope that pays off for the Angels.

And the dude can swing the mashies and niblicks pretty well.  Here's hoping he won't have time to hit the links until November next year.

I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since he pitched for the Angels. Is it me or does time go by faster as we get older?

Any changes the Angels make in the Organization are a welcome site.  Even if it's George Costanza.

I was going to make a joke about them hiring Tommy Hanson next, but then remembered he's been dead for 10 years.

Times are different now with so much money in play. Pitch count was not around and many pitchers throw 150 in a game. Young kids many of them play year round which I feel leads to early arm troubles. Teams want to protect investment they have and same with players. Stick around long enough you become a millionaire.

all this is already well known by pretty much everyone here, including me.

Even Gibson couldn't be Gibson now. Most hitters he'd face in a WS had never stood in against him before and were likely anticipating something up and in if they looked too comfy in the box. Now you can't brush back everyone who dares stand on the plate so it takes more pitches to set up hitters and now even the weakest hitters are stronger than just about anyone in the '60s.

Good interview that Sam Blum did with new Angels pitching coach Barry Enright.
