Per a release by the Senators
The Harrisburg Senators and Washington Nationals announced today that former major league all-star John Stearns has been selected to manage the team for the 2008 season. Stearns replaces Scott Little as manager and returns to the Senators after having spent the 2007 season managing the Nationals AAA team in Columbus.
Stearns, 56, leads a staff in Harrisburg in 2008 that has very familiar faces to Senators fans. Rick Tomlin returns for a fourth season as the Senators pitching coach. Former Senator Troy Gingrich comes to Harrisburg as the hitting coach and Beth Jarrett returns for her fourth season as the Senators trainer.
As mentioned, Stearns returns to lead the 2008 Senators who will likely have top prospects Chris Marrero, Justin Maxwell, Ross Detwiler, among others. With the promotion of Gingrich, the P-Nats will have a new hitting coach in 2008.
Still no word on the rest of the vacancies.
