Anthony Contreras (Manager) is in his first season as Fort Wayne’s manager and is the first former Fort Wayne player to return to manage the team. Contre ras, 32, comes to Fort Wayne after managing the Padres' Short-Season A affiliate, the Tri-City Dust Devils (Northwest League), in 2015. Contreras led Tri-City to a 42-34 record, a division title, and a run to the Northwest League Finals. Contreras made his professional managerial debut in 2014 with the Rookie-level Peoria Padres (Arizona League). Contreras, who grew up in San José, California, played collegiately for four years at San José State (2002-05). The San Francisco Giants selected Contreras in the ninth round of the 2005 First-Year Player Draft. Over nine years in Minor League Baseball that peaked in Triple-A, he sported a .257 batting average. He played in San Diego's organization from June 2008-August 2013. With the Wizards, Contreras had one of the best statistical stretches of his career. In 36 second-half games, he played second base, third, and shortstop, and batted .304. Coincidentally, Contreras concluded his playing career with the Lancaster Barnstormers of the independent Atlantic League in 2013. His hitting coach there was current TinCaps hitting coach Lance Burkhart.

Burt Hooton (Pitching Coach) returns to Fort Wayne and the Padres organization for his fourth season. Hooton, who once threw a no -hitter for the Cubs against the Phillies on April 16, 1972, spent 15 years in the majors with the Cubs (1971-75), Los Angeles Dodgers (1975-84), and Texas Rangers (1985). He finished his major league career with a 151-136 record with 1,491 strikeouts more than 2,652 innings pitched. For the World Series champion Dodgers in 1981, Hooton was named an All-Star and MVP of the National League Championship Series. The Greenville, Texas native began his coaching career in the Dodgers organization in 1988 and has made six different coaching stops prior to joining Fort Wayne. Among those stops, Hooton served as the Houston Astros pitching coach from 2000-04.

Lance Burkhart (Hitting Coach) is in his second season as Fort Wayne’s hitting coach after his older brother Morgan filled the role in 2013 and ‘14. Burkhar t came aboard with San Diego after managing for the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs of the Atlantic League two years ago. Burkhart, who hails from Missouri, was drafted as a catcher by the Expos in the 15th round of the ‘97 draft out of Missouri State. He played eight years of Minor League Baseball, including the 2000 season with Beloit and a bit of ‘03 with Clinton in the Midwest League. Burkhart also played for the Brewers, Rangers, and Orioles’ organizations through 2004. He then spent four years with the Atlantic League’s Lancaster Barnstormers before finishing his playing career in ‘09 with Southern Maryland. Burkhart was a hitting coach for Lancaster from 2010-2013.
