After leading Arizona to Omaha in 2004, Coach Lopez is an elite group of three coaches that have taken three schools to the College World Series in the all-time history of Division I baseball. Coach Lopez is a two-time National Coach of the Year (1992 and 1996) and an eight- time Conference Coach of the Year In 25 seasons as a head coach he has won 969 games and has a winning percentage of .614. His teams have won 447 games in their respective conferences and have captured conference titles eight times. Since 1987, Lopez coached teams have averaged 38 wins a season and he has won 40 or more games in a season 10 times. His top-ranked 1996 College World Series team at Florida were victorious a school record 50 times that season, while 2007-08 Arizona teams won 40 games in back-to-back seasons, the first time the school accomplished the feat in over 20 years. There are currently 12 former Andy Lopez coached players in the Major Leagues. Mark Ellis, David Eckstein , Josh Fogg, David Ross, Matt Wise, Brad Wilkerson, Ryan Raburn, Brian Anderson, Nick Hundley, Ryan Perry and Trevor Crowe. A handful of other players have reached the major leagues, including Paul Rigdon, Mark Kiger, John Meloan and Daniel Schlereth. Since 1987, Coach Lopez has recruited and coached 75 players that have gone on to be drafted in the Major League Amateur Baseball Draft, including seven first round selections (two in 2008). Of the 71 players selected, 43 weren’t even drafted out high school or junior college, while 24 other players improved their draft status after playing under his guide. Including the draftees, a total of 105 players coached by Lopez have signed professional baseball contracts. Coach Lopez has led 32 players to All-America honors, 24 to all-region awards and 65 players to all-conference recognition. Over the last 18 seasons, Lopez-coached teams have appeared in the College World Series an average of nearly once every four years.

His 220 wins and .542 winning percentage as Tucson’s manager from 2004-06 is also a franchise all- time record. He led Rookie-League Missoula to the Pioneer League’s best overall mark (44-32) in 2000 and to the Northern Division’s second-half championship in 2001.

San Diego is still looking for a replacement for hitting coach Alan Zinter, who was let go in September. Meanwhile, infielders coach Ramon Vazquez will not return either, leaving one further vacancy on manager Andy Green's staff. The news means bench coach Mark McGwire, pitching coach Darren Balsley, third-base coach Glenn Hoffman and first-base coach Johnny Washington are all expected to return next season, though the club has not formally announced as much. Vazquez, who played three seasons for the Padres as an infielder from 2002-04, spent one season on Green's staff. Meanwhile, the Padres' search for a hitting coach continues. The club already has interviewed five candidates -- including Red Sox hitting coach Chili Davis on Wednesday. No decision has been made yet, but a Padres source noted it's a near certainty that the club's choice will come from that pool of five candidates. 2 Tatis Jr. among prospects in winter leagues By William Boor / MLB.com | October 19th, 2017 The playoffs and Arizona Fall League may garner the bulk of the attention this time of year, but there's plenty of baseball being played elsewhere.

  • Bullpen Falters After Pitch Count Chases Kluber by Jason
    Bullpen falters after pitch count chases Kluber By Jason Beck and William Kosileski / MLB.com | 12:18 AM ET + 6 COMMENTS CLEVELAND -- Michael Fulmer won't pitch in the Midsummer Classic, but he'll settle for winning a duel opposite fellow American League All- Star Corey Kluber. Fulmer's six-plus quality innings and Justin Wilson's five-out save helped the Tigers close out the first half by avoiding a series sweep to the Indians with a 5-3 win Sunday night at Progressive Field. Cleveland heads into the All-Star break at 47-40, up 2 1/2 games on the Twins in the AL Central. Detroit moved within eight games but still has work to do at 39-48 as general manager Al Avila listens to offers ahead of the July 31 non-waiver Trade Deadline. Kluber and Fulmer (9-6) both allowed a run on three hits over their first five innings. But while Fulmer did it in just 58 pitches, Kluber threw 101, thanks in part to eight strikeouts. Detroit scored three runs in the sixth off the Tribe bullpen, two on Alex Presley's go-ahead double, to move ahead for good. Fulmer entered the seventh with a 5-1 lead and a pitch count of only 71, but four straight hits, including Jose Ramirez's two-run homer, knocked Fulmer out of the game before an out was recorded. Shane Greene retired three straight to escape the jam, then turned the ball over to Wilson, who stranded the bases loaded in the eighth and worked around a single in the ninth for his 10th save.
