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.
