One day after the end of their 2022 season, the Cincinnati Reds announced Thursday five coaches won’t return to manager David Bell’s staff in 2023.

The coaches are: hitting coach Alan Zinter; first base/infield/base running coach Delino DeShields; advance scouting coach Cristian Pérez; bullpen coach Lee Tunnell; and assistant coach Rolando Valles.

Zinter three seasons in the position after being hired in October 2019. DeShields had been on Bell’s staff since Bell’s first season in 2019.
