The Red Sox and the New York Yankees might be rivals, but Boston doesn’t seem to mind hiring those who used to work for its bitter enemy.
The Red Sox have hired former Yankees hitting coach Dillon Lawson as a hitting coordinator, according to Brendan Kuty of The Athletic. Lawson will work with hitters in the upper levels of the Red Sox’ minor league system.
“I’m excited to be joining a great team that’s already moving in the right direction,” Lawson told Kuty.
