Orioles Mike Easler Jersey Question?

[AstrosCollector]

Howard,

I ran a google search and came up with this article dated October 1995.....

"Former Red Sox hitting coach Mike Easler was hired as a roving minor league instructor for the Orioles, but he will be named as the team's major league hitting coach by Thanksgiving. "

I don't know how accurate the article is....it says Roger Clemens would end up with the Astros or Rangers in 1997 and Biggio was headed for the Red Sox that year..haha! I have included the link below.

Hope this helps!

A review of the '96 Orioles Media Guide makes no mention of Easler. The hitting coach is '96 ended up being Rick Down at the Major League Level and their Minor League Hitting Instructor was Dave Stockstill. I also went through all their Minor League affiliates that year and Easler was not affiliated with any of them. In '96 both Gregg Zaun & Mark Parent wore #26. I'll give a call to my Orioles front office contact who was around that time as as well and I'll let you know he recalls about Easler.
