The Philadelphia Phillies will not bring back pitching coach Rich Dubee in 2014.

The Phillies won't renew Dubee's contract. He had been at the position for nine seasons.

"Rich was a big part of a wonderful era here and in his nine years he served our organization very well," Ruben Amaro Jr. said. "We believe it is time for change as we move forward. We thank Rich for his professionalism and contribution to the Phillies."
