I don't know....I like Hudgens, and Radzinsky, but it appears that Torey Louvello will be left out.....and what of Joel Skinner?
Acta has not named a hitting coach but Joe Nunnally (Columbus AAA ) is an internal finalist. He would be a great choice. He did a great job 'repairing' Andy Marte...and I'd like to see him complete the job.

Joe Nunnally (Columbus AAA ) I agree but I was hoping they would go to Akron and get the hitting coach from there.

this just in...Ted Williams' cryogenically frozen head named hitting coach for the 2010 Indians.
Just as ESPN expected.

I'm really liking the staff Acta is putting together.
It seems he gets it and doesn't play favorites.

I like the staff so far. Alomar was a very good hire.

No more Skinner getting guys thrown out by 15 feet at home = automatic coaching staff upgrade.

I don't think Skinner's 3rd base coaching was the major reason for Indians failure to win, but he did have other coaching duties and was part of the regime that didn't get it done.
