Coaching staff is complete
Jeff Cox is the new third base coach, sealing the deal that none of next year's coaches will have come from Mac's old staff (which isn't a bad thing). Cox has been on McKeon's staff in Florida the past few years and was an assistant with Montreal from 2000-2001 and KC in '95. He also has quite an extensive past managing in the minors including a stint in, you guessed it, Montreal's farm system. I don't know when exactly, but I'd be willing to be it coincided with the time that Dave Littlefield and Jim Tracy were there. On a lighter note, it means that our staff next year will be named Jim, Jim, Jeff, Jeff, John, with the one outlier being Bobby Cuellar (who may be considering a name change to John to complete the symmetry).
