A Crazy New Name For Hitting Coach Is Out There!

Wednesday, October 22, 2025 7:43

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Remember Manny Ramirez? Every baseball fan does. He was one of the most feared hitters in baseball during his years with the Boston Red Sox and throughout his MLB career. Now 14 years removed from his playing days he would like to return to Major League Baseball, but in a much different role.

Manny’s playing days may be long gone, but now he is looking to get back into the coaching world and he has let all 30 MLB teams know. Jon Heyman talked about his credentials on MLB Network and X last week.

As Heyman mentions, he has credentials. He knew how to hit, that’s the reason he was every pitcher’s nightmare. But can he TEACH someone how to hit? That remains to be seen, and is a valid question. Manny had the “it” factor, but can he develop that in someone else? He doesn’t have the long resume of teaching hitting skills like he does making clutch hits. So does his MLB experience give him the real credentials to jump to MLB again as THE hitting coach?

It’s an interesting scenario to think about especially after leaving MLB in 2011 after testing positive for PEDS for a third time. Boston has a history of bringing back former Red Sox favorites into special roles for the organization. Could Manny be the next edition after David Ortiz and Pedro Martinez? It’s what Boston does.

But is it what the Yankees would do? Considering James Rowson could easily be heading back to Minnesota as their new manager, the Yankees would need a new hitting coach. It would be crazy, but the Yankees do a lot of crazy things like keep Aaron Boone and Brian Cashman around. The Yankees are also obsessed with the long ball, and Manny had plenty of those. It’s too crazy in my opinion….it’s not a fit.

I’m curious to see where this goes, the man with the “credentials” as Heyman says and the man with the PEDS background….is there a team out there (besides Boston) that will really give this guy a chance?

Can Manny even articulate and teach others to do what he did? That would be a season worth watching. It could be a disaster, or hilarious….or just crazy enough to work?
