Mike Redmond signs with the Rockies as a bench coach

The Rockies announced on Wednesday that Mike Redmond has signed with the club as a bench coach.

Redmond, 45, was the Marlins’ manager from 2013-15 but the club put up a lackluster 155-207 (.428) record, leading to his dismissal 38 games into the 2015 season. He had previously managed Single-A Lansing in 2011 and High-A Dunedin in 2012, both in the Blue Jays organization.

Redmond will be working under new Rockies manager Bud Black, who was hired on November 6.
