Darnell Coles played in the Major Leagues for 14 seasons. His highs in home runs were 20, 15, 10, 10, 10 and 6.

I'm hoping he'll influence D-backs hitters to not swing for HR's on every pitch, hit the ball where "they ain't" and take what they give you, to cut down on non-productive strikeouts and popups.

Not a bad hire (though I wish Laker had followed Magadan out the door).
