Orioles assistant hitting coach Mark Quinn will not return to the team next season, according to an industry source.
Quinn, who played parts of four major league seasons with the Kansas City Royals, served as the team’s assistant hitting coach for just one season after being hired in January. In his role, Quinn worked aside Orioles hitting coach Scott Coolbaugh.
The Orioles led the majors with 253 homers, but they ranked seventh in the American League in runs scored (744) and 10th in the AL in on-base percentage (.317).
Quinn is the owner of The Baseball School in Houston, a hitting academy that works with players at all levels.
