According to Britt Ghiroli of The Athletic, San Diego Padres bench coach/offensive coordinator Ryan Flaherty is headed to the Chicago Cubs to coach with Craig Flaherty is anticipated to be called Cubs bench trainer, resources inform The Athletic. Flaherty was a finalist for the Padres supervisory task that went to Mike Shildt. Had previously acted as Padres bench train. Currently will hold the exact same function in Chicago under Craig Counsell.-- Britt Ghiroli November 29, 2023Flaherty is a favorite of Preller's and was among the finalists for the work that went to Mike Shildt. This seems like a situation where Shildt and/or Flaherty informed Preller to select both goes. It would've been a little awkward for Shildt to have another finalist, that's so well thought about by Preller, on his coaching team while Shildt's only on a two-year contract as well). Former Padre Greg Garcia informed me today he believes Flaherty is a future manager. "The point concerning Flash is that he will certainly be a supervisor at some time. There's no question, " Garcia stated. "He has so much expertise of the video game and puts so much effort right into that."Going to Counsell's staff is a little shocking to me taking into consideration Counsell had a proficient coach in Pat Murphy all those years with the Milwaukee Brewers prior to leaving for Wrigley Area. Now with Flaherty gone Padres Jerseys, it'll interest see that ends up getting on Shildt's staff. Phil Nevin-- a previous bench trainer, 3rd base coach and supervisor-- is still readily available therefore is Adrian Gonzalez. Both interviewed for the work and possibly Gonzalez-- who has no coaching experience-- want to find out under Shildt if he desires to be a manager one day. Or maybe Shildt does not want any type of trains on the staff that interviewed for the task. We should quickly discover out.
