2013 Bench Coach and impending 2014 3B Coach Eduardo Perez has left the Astros in order to spend more time with his family. Pat Listach, hired this off-season, will shift from 1B to 3B Coach and the Astros are in the process of hiring a new 1B Coach. Among the possibilities is Tarrik Brock, a coach in the Marlins system (one of Bo Porter's former teams).
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
