Now that Kevin Long has been fired it is time to bring Yankees legend Tino Martinez back to the Bronx and let him be the hitting coach for the New York Yankees. Tino has experience in the hitting coach position as he was once the coach in Miami with the Marlins. Obviously that didn't end well and we all know the story so I won't get into that again but I can't see lightning striking twice, especially in New York.
Tino would command immediate respect from anyone and everyone walking through those gates game in and game out. Tino is also a professional and a professional hitter with a great approach, attitude, and work ethic. Tino would add immediate credibility to the team and I truly believe he could work wonders with the likes of Brian McCann and the other lefties on the team.
Long is gone and I have been clamoring for Tino to become the hitting coach since early in the year and now is the chance. Brian Cashman, I know you're reading.
