The Altoona Mirror says that the Astros have hired former Pirates minor leaguer-turned-coach Josh Bonifay to be Greeneville's hitting coach.
Bonifay:
"Houston called for an opportunity within their player development department as a hitting coach at a low-level rookie team. It was my first opportunity to have a full-time gig as a hitting coach and a longtime goal to continue my career in baseball.
"I am extremely fortunate for the opportunity, and I look forward to a long career as a coach."
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
