But before he came to the Red Sox, he earned plenty of experience coaching in the American League East.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"inline-text\">Lawson served as the New York Yankees&#8217; minor league hitting coordinator from 2019-21 and as a major league hitting coach from 2022-23. The Yankees&#8217; offense was famously slow in 2023 after Aaron Judge was forced to miss time due to a foot injury he sustained at Dodger Stadium. Lawson was fired at the All-Star break and became general manager Brian Cashman&#8217;s first-ever midseason dismissal.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"inline-text\">Red Sox hire former Yankees hitting coach, Dillon Lawson, as assistant hitting coach<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"twitter\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1850560460195520859&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fbosoxinjection.com%2Fred-sox-promote-former-failed-yankees-coach-to-major-league-staff-01jb9pzydv7p&amp;sessionId=71a989ecdb19d3a0c0ddc12800300359406dc202&amp;siteScreenName=bosoxinjection&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1850560460195520859\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"inline-text\">The 39-year-old also has experience coaching in the Houston Astros farm system, but his tenure with the Yankees remains at the forefront of fans&#8217; minds. Soon after his 2022 promotion to New York&#8217;s hitting coach job,\u00a0Lawson caught heat for his &#8220;hit strikes hard&#8221;\u00a0mantra, and\u00a0the rest of his time with the Yankees didn&#8217;t get much smoother.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"inline-text\">The Red Sox&#8217;s top prospects posted stellar seasons in the minor leagues under Lawson&#8217;s guidance and the\u00a0Cashman credited him for his part\u00a0in many prospect breakouts. His success in New York&#8217;s minor league program didn&#8217;t translate when he moved to the major leagues, and hopefully that changes with Boston.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toronto Blue Jays v Boston Red Sox &#8211;
