Listach began coaching in 1998, and was named the hitting coach for the Cubs Single-A affiliate in 2000. Like ballplayers, the goal is to work up the minor league system, and Listach has been doing just that. This year he began is first full season as manager of the Triple-A Iowa Cubs. (Sidenote: I never know whether to write Triple-A or Class AAA. Anyone know the more "appropriate" way?)
It's still sad to see one of our former beloved Brewers in the Cubs organization (I'm looking at you too, Henry Blanco), but it's nice to see Listach find success. So far, he seems to be much better of than Jim Gantner, who is managing the Wisconsin Woodchucks of the Northwoods League.
