The Washington Nationals are shaking up manager Dave Martinez's staff after another last-place finish, deciding not to renew the contracts of bench coach Tim Bogar, third-base coach Gary DiSarcina, first-base coach Eric Young Jr. and assistant hitting coach Pat Roessler, according to multiple reports.
Pitching coach Jim Hickey will return in 2024, however.
The news comes a little more than a week after the Nationals wrapped up a season in which they went 71-91, which marked a 16-win improvement over 2022 but still leaves the team far from finishing its rebuilding phase.
Only the Colorado Rockies finished this season with a worse record in the National League.
Martinez, who led the Nationals to a World Series title in 2019, agreed to a new two-year contract in August, and general manager Mike Rizzo was given a multiyear extension in September.
The existing contracts for both the manager and the GM were due to expire at the close of the just-concluded season, in which there was a lot of uncertainty around a team that is in the middle of an effort to turn things back around on the field and has been for sale off it.
