We had left Daniele Frignani who, after nine seasons as head coach of Fortitudo Baseball, had decided to say enough. In his place, UnipolSai had thus placed Fabio Betto, until a few months ago, pitching-coach, i.e. the technician designated to guide the pitchers. But the feeling between Frignani and L’Aquila – not only manager, but also player and captain – has never faltered. Thus, Lele remains one of the cornerstones of Gianni Falchi, but with a different role and tasks. Frignani will be the new sporting director, a role that was left vacant after the dismissal of Christian Mura. On paper the same role, in reality with different tasks. He will be the field man, the manager who will collaborate with Fabio Betto in building not only the team, but also a technical staff which will be renewed in some elements.
“Lele is a pillar of Fortitudo – says president Pierluigi Bissa who in the meantime has run for the federal council, in the consortium headed by Marco Mazzieri – a fundamental driving force of our organization and we are happy that he has decided to accept this challenge with I am sure that Lele will be able to make a further contribution to the growth and improvement of Fortitudo at all levels. We want to continue to invest not only in the players, but also in those who, after their career on the pitch, have the will to continue the path as technicians or managers. It is a great pride for us to have him within our company.”
