Apparently this guy is going to be the next WooSox hitting coach. Former Driveline guy before joining the Mets.

Here's his bio from this January:

Hitting Coach Collin Hetzler begins his second season with Syracuse and his fourth season in the New York Mets’ organization. Hetzler spent the 2021 and 2022 seasons as the Mets’ complex hitting coordinator at New York’s spring training complex in Port St. Lucie, FL. In 2022, Hetzler was named the Mets Minor League Staff Member of the Year. The Fort Worth, TX native played two seasons of college baseball at Galveston College before playing his final two collegiate seasons at Houston Baptist University in 2011 and 2012. Hetzler was an assistant coach for the baseball team at Houston Baptist in 2015, 2016, and 2017, and he earned an MBA from Houston Baptist University in 2017. Prior to joining the Mets, Hetzler worked as a hitting trainer and the operations manager at Driveline Baseball in Kent, WA. Driveline is a data-driven baseball development program. While Hetzler never played professionally, his stepfather, Brian Milner, was a member of the Toronto Blue Jays’ organization and played for the major league squad in 1978.

We added a couple new player development guys:

Wallace has a pitching background with a lab (not Driveline) & apparently is a proponent of the splitter. He's worked with Payton Tolle previously, I believe with the Hyannis Harbor Hawks.

Landry was a college baseball player for UT Dallas as recently as last Spring.

Just curious, but does anyone know what sort of salary these positions carry with them?
