The Los Angeles Dodgers hire Pedro Guerrero as a hitting coach, adding him to the major league coaching staff. Multiple outlets describe the move as finalized as part of the team’s planning for the 2027 season, with Guerrero joining after time with the Miami Marlins.
Yahoo Sports and The Athletic say Guerrero previously worked as a hitting coach for the Marlins and is now returning to the Dodgers organization. The Athletic reports Guerrero will serve as co-hitting coach and frames the hire as concluding the Dodgers’ 2027 staff set, while Yahoo Sports emphasizes his Dodgers ties earlier in his career and notes that he is replacing roles within the current staff configuration.
Another outlet reports the hire as a replacement, stating Guerrero comes in after Aaron Bates, and highlights the change at the hitting-instructor level. Across coverage, outlets agree on Guerrero’s most recent Marlins hitting-coach role and the Dodgers’ decision to bring him in for their major league staff.
