Brewers announce 2020 Minor League staffs
MILWAUKEE -- The Brewers announced their slate of Minor League staffs on Wednesday, including promotions for former players Jim Henderson and Néstor Corredor, and the return of all four managers at the organization’s full-season affiliates.
Henderson will be pitching coach at Triple-A San Antonio under manager Rick Sweet, who returns for a seventh straight season at the helm of Milwaukee’s top affiliate. Henderson pitched for the Brewers from 2012-14, including a 28-save campaign in ’13. After pitching for the Mets in 2014 he retired and took a job as a coach in Milwaukee’s Minor League chain, serving most recently as the pitching coach at Class A Wisconsin last season.
Corredor, who played five seasons in Milwaukee’s Minor League system, including a few stints in big league Spring Training camp, will serve as a coach at Double-A Biloxi after managing the past 10 seasons in the system, all at the Rookie level.
The Brewers’ slate of affiliates will again feature two teams in the Rookie-level Arizona League and two in the Dominican Summer League, including one joint club with the Toronto Blue Jays to be managed by Fidel Peña, who spent 2019 as a coach at Class A Advanced Carolina.
