The Express named Mickey Storey as the team's manager. Storey comes from the Class A Quad Cities River Bandits, a Houston Astros minor league affiliate based in Davenport, Iowa. The 32-year-old coach previously played for the Houston Astros in 2012, during which he posted a 3.86 ERA in 26 appearances. Joining Storey on the Express staff are pitching coach Drew French and hitting coach Ben Rosenthal.

The pitching coach is a native of Austin, according to the press release, and attended Stephen F. Austin High School.
