"Lind would be the first hire for new manager Craig Albernaz. Lind began his coaching career in 2018 as a minor league quality assurance coach in Seattle's organization. He joined the Giants in 2020 as an assistant hitting coach, a role he would retain through 2023. Lind has been an assistant hitting coach with the Phillies for the past two seasons."
"Albernaz and Lind should be plenty familiar with each other, as their paths crossed perfectly in San Francisco. Baltimore's skipper joined the Giants as bullpen coach and catching instructor in 2020, staying through 2023. Both Albernaz and Lind left for other opportunities after Gabe Kapler's managerial tenure ended. Baltimore has multiple positions to fill on the hitting side. Hitting coach Cody Asche was hired by Detroit. The Orioles ranked 24th in scoring last season."
Dustin Lind is expected to be the Baltimore Orioles' hitting coach and would be the first hire for manager Craig Albernaz. Lind began coaching in 2018 as a minor league quality assurance coach with Seattle, joined the Giants in 2020 as an assistant hitting coach through 2023, and spent the past two seasons as an assistant hitting coach with the Phillies. Albernaz and Lind worked together in San Francisco from 2020–2023 and both left after Gabe Kapler's tenure. Baltimore must fill multiple hitting-side positions after Cody Asche left for Detroit and two assistants will not return. The Orioles scored 24th last season despite a young core of hitters.
