In a newly created role, Sean McSheffery was Sun Devil Baseball's Director of Player Development in 2023 and will perform recruiting organization and research and be heavily involved in scouting reports and game-planning. He will also oversee the Sun Devil Baseball camp program.   "McSheffery adds a dynamic element to our baseball staff; he's a tremendous role guy with a lot of background and understanding of what makes a good player at this level," said Bloomquist. " He's going to be a very important guy in the recruiting world for us and he's extremely valuable with what we're doing here in Tempe."   Prior to joining Bloomquist's staff, McSheffery spent time with the Kenosha Kingfish as a manager in 2022 and served in a baseball operations role for the Phenom Wisconsin baseball program. After spending two seasons at Hendrix University, McSheffery was elevated as a manager in 2019 compiling a 48-46 record where he spent three seasons but guided the Warriors to its first-ever SAA Regular Season Championship with a 30-14 record in his first year.   Before taking over the head coach position at Hendrix, he assisted as hitting coach, infield coach and handled recruiting duties for the Warriors. Throughout his coaching career, he has worked with 20 players who've been drafted professionally.     Before working at Hendrix in 2017, McSheffery spent two seasons at Florida International University and spent three seasons with the San Diego Padres single-A team, the Eugene Emeralds and the Triple-AAA affiliate Tucson Padres from 2012-2014 being responsible for day-to-day operations of the club and managing scouting reports.    The Dallas graduate was named an assistant coach at Phoenix College in 2012 and was a volunteer assistant in 2011 at Dallas University after graduating.
