Also we can't say that what Lemonis has done is unacceptable and not up to our standards and then go hire a hitting coach from Tennessee. And if it's money related which I doubt it is- then keep Lemonis for another year and fire him after the house situation is settled rather than risk 3-4 more bad years if our assistant hire doesn't work out. We would all be better off with one more bad season than 3-4 bad ones and a massive rebuild on our hands.

And that's not advocating keeping Lemonis. It's me advocating getting a coach with experience.
