I won’t pretend that I know everything in the job description of a Major League 3rd base coach, but I’d guess being able to judge the capabilities of your own players to run the bases is up there. I get that it’s not the biggest thing, and we’re only talking about it because everything is in the table now, but it’s indicative IMO of how this organization has devalued the “traditional “ parts of the game that old timers like me pay to see.
