The Cubs retained Chris Bosio, Lester Strode and Mike Borzello to their coaching staff on Friday while making a series of moves, including Brandon Hyde as bench coach and Bill Mueller as hitting coach.

Mueller will replace James Rowson as hitting coach, with Mike Brumley as the assistant hitting coach, replacing Rob Deer. Gary Jones was named as third base coach.

Mueller played in the majors for 11 seasons, including with the Cubs in 2001 and 2002.

The Cubs have yet to announce their first base coach.

Jaron Madison moves from director of amateur scouting to director of player development, replacing Hyde in that role. The Cubs also moved national and regional crosscheceker Matt Dorey to replace Madison as director of amateur scouting.

Franklin Font will return as a staff assistant.
