The Cubs announced three more additions on Friday afternoon to the coaching staff. Mike Quade was hired to coach 3rd base, Matt Sinatro was hired to coach 1st base and Lester Strode was hired as bullpen coach. The three will join Larry Rothschild and Alan Trammell on the new staff. The Cubs have not announced their new hitting coach, yet….Von Joshua, Dave Keller, Ron Jackson and Chris Chambliss are the rumored names to fill the vacancy and Chambliss was interviewed by the Brewers on Thursday.

He was the Oakland A’s 1st base coach from 2000-2002.

Matt Sinatro, 46, will serve with Lou Piniella. Sinatro was the bullpen coach for the Devil Rays from 2003-2005 and was also with Piniella in Seattle from 1995-2002.
