Cubs fired hitting coach Von Joshua.
Joshua took the job when Gerald Perry was fired on June 14. He had been the Triple-A hitting coach before that, and he'll be offered his old job back if he wants. "Basically I told him it wasn't anything that I was upset with him," GM Jim Hendry said. "He didn't do anything wrong. But when you come up from the system in the middle of the year, if things don't make significant differences in improvement, then obviously in my opinion we need to do something different."
