Rays Hire Ozzie Timmons As Assistant Hitting Coach
"The Rays hired Ozzie Timmons as an assistant hitting coach on Monday, according to a club announcement. He replaces Brady North, who departed Kevin Cash's staff at the end of the regular season. Timmons is back on an MLB staff after spending the 2025 campaign in a special assistant role. The 55-year-old had been on Cash's coaching staff as a first base coach/assistant hitting coach between 2018-21."
"The Brewers hired him as one of two co-hitting coaches over the 2021-22 offseason. A Tampa-area native, Timmons suited up for the Devil Rays in 2000 as part of a brief MLB playing career spread across four teams. He'd worked as their Triple-A hitting coach before getting his first crack on the MLB staff in 2018. He'll work underneath lead hitting instructor Chad Mottola, who has been the club's hitting coach for the past nine-plus seasons."
