Roger McDowell has confirmed he will return to serve as the Braves pitching coach next year.

Good news but we'll be in the same situation next year.....

I think coaching staff (minus Fredi) usually are on one year deals, even under Bobby's staff.

Not sure if that's league-wide thing, but it's basically a year to year thing.

 

[MadduxFanII]

DOB says McDowell got a two-year deal.

David O'Brien ‏@ajcbraves 49s
McDowell gets a 2-year deal from #Braves, instead of one-year contract initially offered

I hope we paid him what he deserves. Enough of this cheap nickel and dime garbage.

Maybe McDowell replaces Fredi?

And is kinda like Farrell is for Boston, pitching coach/manager.

I bet they extend him, but who knows. Perhaps we (or he) need to make it deeper in the playoffs for it to happen.

What is your expectation?

Maybe so.

 

[cajunrevenge]

Does Roger think Kimbrel can pitch 2 innings?

 

[gtcway]

First good news of the offseason.

 

[bravesnumberone]

Offseason off to a good start. Extremely good news.

 

[Runnin]

Great news. Whatever the figure is, he deserves more.
