Connor spent the past eight years in the Texas Rangers organization. He served as pitching coach for Showalter in his two other managerial stints with the Arizona Diamondbacks and New York Yankees. He takes over for Rick Kranitz.

Presley, who spent the past five seasons as hitting coach for the Florida Marlins, replaces longtime hitting coach Terry Crowley. He spent three seasons as Showalter's hitting coach in Arizona.
