Red Sox Hire Dillon Lawson As Assistant Hitting Coach
Briefly

Dillon Lawson has been promoted to assistant hitting coach for the Red Sox, replacing Luis Ortiz, who is among six coaches not returning for 2025.
Lawson's promotion comes after a year as the minor league hitting coordinator and follows a tenure where he was fired mid-season as the Yankees' hitting coach.
Despite his firing by the Yankees, Lawson's offense was statistically better (wRC+ 96) than under his successor Sean Casey (wRC+ 92), underscoring his coaching impact.
Boston's offensive performance was strong in 2024, ranking in the top ten across most categories, though a late-season slump dashed playoff hopes.
