Rick Honeycutt joined the Dodgers coaching staff as pitching coach for the 2006 season. He also launched a sporting goods and apparel business in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Honeycutt and Mariano Duncan were the only holdovers from Grady Little’s 2007 coaching staff to return on new Dodgers’ manager Joe Torre’s 2008 coaching staff. Honeycutt also remained as pitching coach when Don Mattingly replaced Torre after the 2010 season. When Mattingly left the team after the 2015 season, Honeycutt was the only coach to remain on the staff for new manager Dave Roberts.

They defeated the Cubs in five games and advanced to the World Series for the first time since 1988, where they lost to the Houston Astros in seven games.
