COACHES HIRINGS/FIRINGS
The Seattle Pilots have fired hitting coach Jim Dodson. The team was hitting a major league worst .206 as a team, with only a .286 on base percentage and a paltry .281 team slugging percentage.
You’ll absolutely love this signing as a replacement however. The Pilots have announced that Pedro Serrano has been signed to a 3 year contract as the team’s new hitting instructor. My guess is that they won’t be able to hit curveballs either.
