Miami Marlins: A new hitting philosophy starts in South Florida

It’s out with the old and in with a new mantra, a new scheme and what ultimately means a new way of thinking for the Marlins who are in camp as Spring Training fully gets underway on Monday inside the team’s facility at Roger Dean Stadium.

Eric Duncan will be the man charged with making that happen as he has been named the team’s new hitting coach. James Rowson, who was hired from the Minnesota Twins to serve as Don Mattingly’s bench coach, will also help with hitting and helping the roster become more patient at the plate and hopefully knock in a few more runs than in 2019.
