HaloLinks: Dave Hansen and Paul Sorrento join Mike Scioscia's band

The cat was let out of the bag a couple nights ago, but yesterday evening we got official confirmation from the Angels: Dave Hansen is going to be the Angels' new hitting coach, replacing Don Baylor. Dave Hansen is no stranger to the Angels, of course; he's already been working as an assistant for the team, and had many years of coaching under his belt from his Salt Lake Bees days. Heck, it isn't even the first time he's had the job, as he was tabbed to fill in as hitting coach for the big league club in 2014, after Vladimir Guerrero broke Baylor's leg before the season had started.
