Diamondbacks Fire Hitting Coaches
3 years agoThe Arizona Diamondbacks fired hitting coach Darnell Coles and assistant hitting coach Eric Hinske on Thursday, according to Zach Buchanan of The Athletic. The Diamondbacks have been struggling on offense for a while now, as they are slashing .219/.280/.335 over their last 27 games, along with a 25.9 percent strikeout rate over that span. Buchanan reports that Triple-A hitting coach Rick Short and run production coordinator Drew Hedman will be joining the Diamondbacks to replace Coles and Hinske. Hopefully this will lead to bounce-back performances for Diamondbacks hitters, and managers should keep an eye on their performances over the next few games.
