The Cubs have dismissed six members of the Minor League coaching staff. Dave Bialas, who has been with the Cubs for 18 years, most recently as Triple-A Iowa’s manager, was on the list along with Class A Daytona pitching coach Marty Mason, Class A Peoria manager Casey Kopitzke and hitting coach Barbaro Garbey, and Mesa Rookie League pitching coach Frank Castillo and hitting coach Jason Dubois. Kopitzke, Castillo and Dubois all played for the Cubs.
