A couple of weeks ago, the Rangers hired former A’s manager Art Howe as bench coach. He had already been hired by the Phillies to be their first base coach. With former Rangers bench coach Don Wakamatsu accepting a “demotion” to third base coach, that pushed out former third base coach Steve Smith.
Steve Smith was hired today by the Phillies to be their third base coach, which was vacated by Art Howe’s departure for Texas.
So it’s not a real trade, but a “sorta” trade. :)
