The Reds announced yesterday the newest additions of David Bell’s coaching staff, as it slowly comes together. We covered it a bit late last night, but it’s worth repeating here.
I don’t really have very many thoughts about it, much less a hot take for you all to consume. Ecker is only 32 years old, which seems really young for “assistant hitting coach,” but on the other hand, I don’t really have any perspective on what the normal age for a job like that is. Nor do I think hiring a young guy is inherently bad, it just stuck out to me as I did a little searching on Donnie Ecker.
