The next season, he became an instructor in the Cubs minor league system until June, when he was named to coach at their Wytheville club in the Appalachian League. Trembley managed in the minors every year since, except for 1990 when he served as director of the day-to-day operation of Pittsburgh's minor league complex and spring training facility at Bradenton, Florida. He began his managing career with the independent Kinston team in the Class A Carolina League in 1986. He managed one winter at Navajoa in the Mexican Pacific League. Trembley joined the Pirates organization in 1987, guiding AA Harrisburg to the Eastern League title and being named the loop's Manager of the Year. He also coached third base for two years for Magallanes in the Venezuelan Winter League. He spent one year as manager of San Diego's AA Wichita team before rejoining the Cubs organization, where he managed nine years (1994-2002) at three different levels. Trembley earned his second league title and Manager of the Year honor in 1995 when he guided Class A Daytona to the Florida State League title and also was named Manager of the Year in the Southern League in 1999 after guiding AA West Tennessee to a pair of first place finishes before losing in the playoffs.
Trembley began his career with the Orioles at AA Bowie in 2003. In his first season with Bowie, he was named winner of the organization's Cal Ripken, Sr. Player Development Award.
