The Los Angeles Dodgers named former Texas Rangers manager Chris Woodward as their first-base coach.
Woodward replaces Clayton McCullough, who was named the Miami Marlins manager earlier this month.
A native of the Los Angeles area, Woodward was the Rangers’ manager from 2019 into the 2022 season before he was dismissed after compiling a 211-287 record. He was an adviser to the Dodgers’ player-development staff last season and was the Los Angeles third-base coach from 2016-18.
The 48-year-old played 12 seasons in the major leagues, batting .239 with 33 home runs and 191 RBIs over 659 games for five teams, including his first six seasons (1999-2004) with the Toronto Blue Jays before returning to Toronto in 2011.
