It sort of came out of nowhere. Then again, anyone who has been following the Diamondbacks’ struggles this season could argue that the move has been a long time coming. Regardless of how one views the situation, the fact remains that the Diamondbacks have moved on from both their Hitting Coach, Darnell Coles, and their Assistant Hitting Coach, Eric Hinske. For the time being, the team has named Reno Hitting Coach Rick Short, and Run Production Coordinator Drew Hedman as co-hitting coaches for the parent club.
