vice president, assistant GM to field coordinator is a promotion? That seems very odd to me

Funny I would be asking if he was a good manager, why were they that far back?

I didn’t really follow them this season either, but the article goes on to explain the following:

The Guardians stormed back in September and made major-league history by erasing a 15 1/2-game deficit to capture another division title. They reached the postseason despite an offense that ranked near the bottom of the league in every worthwhile category and despite missing Ortiz, Clase, Shane Bieber and Ben Lively on the pitching side.

Mariners pick up a new bullpen coach - former Mariner catcher Austin Nola. You may remember him as the guy they gave up to Ty Frances and Munoz.
