That's remarkable because manager Joe Maddon came aboard in the fall of 2014, with a staff already in place for 2015. Many times, a manager will overhaul a staff to his liking, but Maddon added only bench coach Dave Martinez, his trusted hand from Tampa Bay. He left the rest of the staff intact. Although some may have expected a change or two for 2016, Maddon and his front-office bosses repeatedly praised the work of the coaches during and after last year's 97-win season. The jobs of the coaches have become more involved over the years, and one man simply cannot do it all in each facet of the game. Let's break down the Cubs' coaching staff down by department: Pitching and catching: Chris Bosio is so highly regarded as a pitching coach that he is working under his third manager of the Cubs. Bosio came aboard for the 2012 season under Dale Sveum and also has worked for Rick Renteria and Maddon. Bosio, a former major-league pitcher, looks the part of a throwback, but he provides thoughtful responses in interviews and seems to maintain a good rapport with his pitchers, even as their roles may change and as bodies come and go during the season. The biggest feather in Bosio's cap is his guidance of Jake Arrieta, who won the Cy Young Award last year. Bosio also took a Rule 5 pick in Hector Rondon and coached him into a 30-save closer. Bosio gets help from bullpen coach Lester Strode, who enters his 28th year in the Cubs organization. Mike Borzello, the catching and strategy coach, prepares game plans and scouting reports. The Cubs also have one of their former catchers, Henry Blanco, who came aboard last year as quality assurance coach. Hitting: Team president Theo Epstein once likened the hitting-coach position on the Cubs to that of the drummer's spot in Spinal Tap. The Cubs under Epstein couldn't settle in a hitting coach for more than a year after he took over. That has changed, as Chicago native John Mallee goes into his second season with the Cubs. Mallee's biggest challenge is coaching a bunch of young hitters who hit for power and strike out a lot. Last season, Cubs batters led the National League by striking out 1,518 times. The debate over how "bad" strikeouts are as opposed to other kinds of outs will continue. As the Cubs' young batters mature and they learn better approaches at the plate, the strikeouts should come down, which will be important when situations call for putting the ball into play to advance a runner. The Cubs were sixth in runs scored last year, fifth in home runs, fifth in on-base percentage and seventh in slugging. Mallee is assisted by former big-league hitter Eric Hinske. The bases: If you can't name the Cubs' third-base coach off the top of your head, that's probably a good thing because it means he wasn't getting a whole bunch of runners thrown out at the plate. Gary Jones, who came to the Cubs with Renteria in 2014, does a quiet, solid job at third. He also works with the infielders. Brandon Hyde came to the organization after Epstein and general manager Jed Hoyer took over in the fall of 2011. Hyde has moved from minor-league field coordinator to bench coach to first-base coach. The bench: Sooner or later, Martinez will leave Maddon, only because some other team will make him their major-league manager. A former Cubs and White Sox player, Martinez is a detail-oriented coach, and working under the innovated Maddon, both in Tampa Bay (2008-14) and Chicago, should only help his managerial chances in the future. Rounding out the coaching staff is Franklin Font, a former Cubs farmhand who enters his 22nd year in the organization. He serves as a staff assistant. -- Cubs.com Cubs' Russell takes game to new level By Carrie Muskat MESA, Ariz. -- Joe Maddon learned last season that Addison Russell was a solid defender, a good kid and the "shortstop of the future," but the Cubs manager wasn't prepared for the power. Russell didn't waste any time this spring flexing his muscles. In the Cubs' second spring game, Russell smacked a two-run home run, the first by anyone on the team in Cactus League play. After hitting 13 home runs last season, Russell could be poised for a breakout season in 2016. "It's something I wanted to show last year, but the style I played, I was a little more timid coming into the season," Russell said of his power. "It was harder for me to let it fly, especially making that move to second. It was a hard transition. At the end of last year, I felt that grip-and-rip type feel, and that's the point I want to get at early on in the season." When Russell was promoted to the big leagues last April 21, he was inserted as the starting second baseman. Starlin Castro was the Opening Day shortstop, and the team had been rotating second basemen, starting Tommy La Stella, Arismendy Alcantara and Jonathan Herrera. On Aug.

  • New York Yankees Shortstop Gleyber Torres Wins AFL MVP
    New York Yankees shortstop Gleyber Torres wins AFL MVP Author : Robert D. Cobb New York Yankees' top prospect, shortstop Gleyber Torres, has won the Arizona Fall League MVP award. Torres, who was the headliner in the package from the Cubs that sent Aroldis Chapman to Chicago, is just 19-years-old. He is the youngest player to win the Joe Black MVP Award, in fact, no one under the age of 21 has ever put together a better season in the 32 game league. [embedit snippet="ryne-ads"] The Arizona Fall League is an off-season, 32 game league that plays from mid-October to mid-November. It was founded in 1992 and has attracted many of the top prospects in minor league systems all around the league. Torres, along with fellow Yankee prospects Greg Bird, Miguel Andujar, Dillon Tate, J.P. Feyereisen, Tyler Wade, Brody Koerner and James Kaprielian, played for the Scottsdale Scorpions. Torres led the AFL in average at .403, OBP at .513, and OPS at 1.158. He also earned the batting title, by an astounding 50 points over the next closest player. He added 25 hits, three homers, four doubles, 14 walks, and four stolen bases in 18 games, putting all of his tools on display. His performance earned him two AFL Player of the Week awards en route to being named MVP. He wasn't only the league's best hitter, but he also provided a flair for the dramatic. On October 15th he delivered a walk-off hit with the bases loaded for the Scorpions, joining teammate Tim Tebow with the only walk-off hits of the year.
