Word has been received that the Denver Brewers sent their hitting coach, Nate Harville, packing and elevated AAA Chester hitting coach, MIchael Hawkins, to the big league club.
Harville has gained a reputation as an ineffective hitting coach and the feeling in the organization is that the Brewers hitters have under-performed these past several years. On the other hand, Hawkins is thought to have done a fine job with Chester and the hope is that his balanced approach can help the Brewers hitters get the most out of their inherent talents in the upcoming seasons.
