The Double-A Somerset Patriots coupled a strong pitching staff with a prolific offense to win a division title in the Double-A Northeast, Eastern Division in 2021. The team’s offense led the league in home runs, total bases and slugging percentage on the year while finishing second in walks. A number of individual players including Oswald Peraza and Oswaldo Cabrera had breakout seasons under the guidance of Somerset hitting coach Joe Migliaccio. Migliaccio was recently promoted to the role of Yankees Hitting Coordinator and took some time to talk with Pinstripe Alley about a variety of topics. Below is part one of what will be a two-part interview.
