Dillon Lawson must have a great personality or something, because lord knows he had no major league experience before coming to the New York Yankees and I was thrilled when the Yankees fired him. But now, according to reports, Lawson has a new gig and it's as a hitting coordinator (whatever that is) and it's with the Boston Red Sox...
" Lawson, the former big-league hitting coach for the New York Yankees, has found a new home with the Boston Red Sox as their hitting coordinator. Lawson, who was released by the Yankees midseason due to major offensive struggles, expressed his excitement about joining the Red Sox, emphasizing the team's positive direction.... Lawson's primary focus in his new role will be working with the upper-level minor leaguers within the Red Sox organization....Lawson expressed respect for the Red Sox's director of hitting development, Jason Ochart, and major league hitting coach Peter Fatse. He also highlighted his familiarity with the assistant hitting coaches, having worked with Ben Rosenthal in the Houston Astros organization and attempting to recruit Luis Ortiz during his time with the New York Yankees."To be honest, it sounds like a paid internship to me. Whatever the case, it doesn't change the fact that Lawson is literally the worst major league coach out there, and that will never change for me.
Good luck in Boston trying to tell those fans that the Sox are "hitting strikes hard". Those fans are so incredibly passionate they will do much worse to you than Yankee fans!
