The Cincinnati Reds continued to shake up their organization this week as they hired 30-year-old Cody Atkinson. He will be in a job that previously did not exist within the organization: Hitting Assessment and Run Production coach. The job will be more of a roving coordinator type of job. Atkinson will travel through the entire organization throughout the year. He will be working with the Major League staff, as well as Minor League staffs at the various levels.
Chad Dotson and Jason Linden brought up this hire a little bit on the Redleg Nation Radio podcast.
