Orioles name Chris Holt pitching coach

A move that will shock no one, I am sure.

He was probably the first choice to be the longterm PC all along, but there was no sense having him spend two years tinkering with Dan Straily and Asher Wojo's deliveries.

So Brocail was the caretaker in the job.   Now that young pitchers are starting to trickle to the major leagues, it was time.

I agree with the analysis. Hence why I never bought the whole "finance" angle with Brocail.

It seems like a pretty big job to coach the major league pitchers and also oversee the MiL pitching operations.    I wonder if he’ll have an assistant on the MiL side.
