Seth Moir, an assistant coach at San Jose State for two seasons, was hired as an assistant coach at Cal Poly in August 2022 and will be in charge of the pitchers.
The pitching coach at San Jose State, Moir helped the 2022 Spartans to their first 30-victory season and first winning record (30-29) since 2011 and first-ever appearance in the championship game of the Mountain West Conference Tournament. Darren Jansen earned first-team All-MWC honors while Brady Hill earned 10 saves en route to a spot on the All-MWC second unit.
Prior to his two-year stint at San Jose State, Moir spent four years in the Minnesota Twins scouting department. Moir started with the Twins in 2017, serving as the area scout in the Carolinas before moving back to Southern California to scout in 2018. In his time with the Twins, Moir drafted 13 players and signed 10.
Outside of his duties as a scout with the Twins, Moir utilized his pitching expertise to join a small team of scouts specializing in the assessments of arm actions and deliveries.
In 2017, Moir was invited to be an assistant coach for USA Baseball's Collegiate National Team that went on to win series against Chinese Taipei, Cuba and Japan. The roster included 26 eventual draftees and 14 pitchers, several of whom have already gone on to make their MLB debuts.
Prior to joining the Twins organization, Moir served as the Director of Baseball Operations at UCLA for five seasons under head coach John Savage. In his time at UCLA, the Bruins made two trips to Omaha, winning the national championship in 2013.
The Bruins won three Pac-12 titles with Moir on staff while also hosting two regionals in their three postseason appearances. A total of 44 Bruins and 23 pitchers would go on to be taken in the MLB Draft throughout Moir's tenure in Westwood.
Previous to UCLA, Moir took an operations apprenticeship role with the New York Yankees, where he spent time working with player development, scouting, analytics and video. The Yankees went on to sponsor Moir for the MLB Scouting Bureau Scout School.
Moir graduated from Montana State in May 2008 with a bachelor’s degree in public relations.
A native of Cody, Wyoming, Moir is married to his wife, Kelly..
