Eric Hinske Rejects Yanks

The other day the Yanks reportedly told Dave Magadan that they wanted to go in another direction in their searching or a new hitting coach.   That other direction remains unclear as reports have surfaced that Cub assistant coach Eric Hinske has turned them down, choosing instead to be the Cub assistant hitting coach this year.  Not sure if the Yanks should be looking for a message in this, but it's pretty clear they didn't have much of a plan, when they let Long go.   I'm still hoping they hire 2 and that Rowson is one of them.

Btw, yesterday, Trey Hillman cleared something up.  He was asked if he wanted to interview for Newman's job, not that he was offered the job itself.   So Denbo might have gotten it anyway.
