If hiring Jaramillo helps Soriano adjust to his new spot in the order and gets us a few more productive years out of him, then I'm all for paying up to get a hitting coach that has a very good working relationship with him. That alone would make Jaramillo worth the money IMO.
Don't get me wrong, I generally don't like the idea of paying through the nose for a big-name coaching staff, as even the best coaches can only do so much with the talent they are given, but in some cases you make exceptions. Given our offensive drop-off last season, I'm willing to try anything.
