The Rays announced their full coaching staff on Tuesday, tabbing Will Bradley as an assistant hitting coach to round out the group. He had spent the 2025 season as a minor league hitting coordinator.
Bradley is a former college player and coach who moved into the professional ranks with the Angels in 2019. He began his Rays tenure as a Triple-A hitting coach before moving into the coordinator role. Bradley has also coached for the Australian national team. This is his first season on an MLB staff, and he’ll split the assistant hitting coach duties with Ozzie Timmons.
Tampa Bay announced last month that former All-Star Corey Dickerson would take over as first base coach. He replaces Michael Johns, who left the organization to become Blake Butera’s bench coach in Washington.
The majority of Kevin Cash’s staff is intact from the 2025 season. Bench coach Rodney Linares, pitching coach Kyle Snyder, hitting coach Chad Mottola, third base coach Brady Williams, assistant pitching coach Rick Knapp, bullpen coach Jorge Moncada, field coordinator Tomas Francisco, and process/development coach Kris Goodman are all back.
