Rick Renteria’s coaching staff took shape on Friday with Joe McEwing moving from third base coach to bench coach and a pair of long-time player development staffers earning spots in the major leagues.

McEwing will replace Renteria as the club's bench coach, while Nick Capra was named third base coach and Curt Hasler bullpen coach. Hitting coach Todd Steverson, assistant hitting coach Greg Sparks, pitching coach Don Cooper, first base coach Daryl Boston and bullpen catcher Mark Salas will return for the 2017 season.

McEwing spent the last five seasons as the White Sox third base coach and had his name pop up in a handful of managerial searches. Previously, the 44-year-old McEwing managed Single-A Winston-Salem (2009-2010) and Triple-A Charlotte (2011) in the White Sox organization.

“I am very excited to continue working with Joe in his new role as our club’s bench coach,” Renteria said. “Joe’s tireless work ethic, extensive baseball acumen and high-energy personality will continue to be an important part of our team’s preparation next season. Joe has proven himself to be a key member of our coaching staff as well as an important teacher to our players.”

Capra served as the White Sox director of player development from 2012-2016 and has been in the organization since 1996. 2017 will be his first year on a major league coaching staff, though he did serve as a manager in the White Sox minor league system from 1996-2005.

Hasler similarly will move to the major league coaching staff from a player development-oriented role after spending six seasons as the White Sox pitching coordinator. He also served as a pitching coach throughout the organization farm system from 1991-2010. He replaces Bobby Thigpen as the White Sox bullpen coach.

“Adding quality instructors like Nick and Curt to the major-league staff are important moves for the growth and success of our entire roster,” Renteria said. “Nick’s extensive experience in player development will be important to many of our young players, and his years as a minor-league manager have him well prepared to work the third-base box. Curt knows all levels of our organization extremely well, has a great working relationship with Don Cooper and has proven himself to be a tremendous teacher for all of our pitchers.”
