November 7, 20232 yr Very Nice. He comes from Cleveland's FO and even if he does nothing is an upgrade over Boston's coaching of OFers. Keep plugging away Chris!
November 7, 20232 yr Wait, they actually hired a guy who was known for the stuff that he will be in charge of? What madness is this?

November 7, 20232 yr In addition to the Cleveland gig, Sizemore also had a coaching cameo in the Dbacks minors last year. There seems to be an emphasis on younger guys with MLB experience with the recent hires, wonder how/if that will carry over to the hitting coach(es).

November 7, 20232 yr Per Jimmy on Twitter, sounds like Marcus Thames will be announced as the hitting coach. Definitely like the idea of the younger guys with recent MLB experience.
