洛杉矶天使队因本赛季成绩为美国职棒大联盟最差而进行教练班子调整[1]。球队临时管理层领导John Mozeliak宣布解雇投手教练Mike Maddux、捕手教练Dom Chiti和助理投手教练Darryl Scott[1]。Tim Leveque和Michael Wuertz分别被任命为临时投手教练和临时捕手教练[1]。
天使队目前战绩为45胜74负，为MLB最差[1]，这也是球队连续第11个赛季战绩为负[1]。在Maddux执教的投手群中，防御率达到4.51，在联盟中排名第七差[1]。Maddux去年冬天才被聘用，执教时间不足一个赛季[1]。Mozeliak在声明中表示："在与Kurt讨论了我们作为教练团队现在的情况以及我们未来想要去往的方向后，我们认为做出改变是最好的选择。"[1]本赛季还有七周时间剩余[1]。
The Los Angeles Angels have dismissed pitching coach Mike Maddux, catcher coach Dom Chiti, and assistant pitching coach Darryl Scott amid a significant coaching staff reorganization.[1] The move comes as the Angels posted a 45-74 record this season, the worst in Major League Baseball.[1] This marks the franchise's 11th consecutive season with a losing record.[1]
Interim manager John Mozeliak announced the personnel changes, stating: "After spending time discussing with Kurt where we are as a coaching staff and where we want to go in the future, we felt it was best to make a change."[1] Maddux, who was hired less than a year ago during the offseason, oversaw a pitching staff that compiled a 4.51 ERA, ranking seventh-worst in MLB.[1] The Angels have promoted Tim Leveque to interim pitching coach and Michael Wuertz to interim catcher coach.[1] With approximately seven weeks remaining in the regular season, the organization hopes the coaching adjustments will provide direction for the struggling club.[1]
