Yankees Catching Coordinator Sees Promotion Under New Manager at Seattle Mariners

After 7 seasons shaping the Yankees’ catching department, he has moved to Seattle, closing the book on New York. With the Mariners, he has not only secured a new job with a promotion, but also moved back to his roots. “The Yankees are losing a key member of their coaching staff, Tanner Swanson, who is joining the Mariners as their bench coach,” reported Joel Sherman. Tanner Swanson is leaving New York behind, and the Seattle Mariners are bringing him home as bench coach under new manager Jason Kanzler.
