Matt Hague is leaving the Toronto Blue Jays coaching staff to become the Pittsburgh Pirates hitting coach, according to TSN Blue Jays Reporter Scott Mitchell.
Hague served as assistant hitting coach under Guillermo Martinez on the 2024 big league staff. Toronto parted ways with Martinez after the season and hired David Popkins as his replacement.
The 39-year-old Hague served as the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons' hitting coach in 2023 after spending the two seasons prior with the Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats, both affiliates of the Jays.
