6 years agoTexas Rangers hitting coach Anthony Iapoce is leaving the team for the same position with the Chicago Cubs, according to a source. Iapoce was the special assistant to the general manager with the Cubs before becoming the Rangers hitting coach in 2016. The Cubs fired Chili Davis as their hitting coach last week after just one season. Chicago ranked first in overall hits (1,453), 11th in home runs (167), fifth in RBI (722), first in overall average (.258) and fifth in OPS (.744) in the National League in 2018.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
