What is the story about?
Listen,
I would honestly be shocked if the Phillies actually did what many of you want them to do with the managerial position. Not just with getting rid of Rob Thomson, but also in bringing aboard Alex Cora to replace him.
Shocked, I say.
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- Alex Cora was fired by the Red Sox yesterday, but if you believe this author, he may not be without a job for long.
- The bad luck that the Phillies have had largely comes from a defense that has pretty much stunk this season.
MLB news:
- In something of a stunner, the Red Sox got rid of half their coaching staff yesterday in one fell swoop. I can already tell what you’re thinking…
- Munetaka Murakami continues to rake for the White Sox. What are some numbers to watch with him as he keeps going?
- Pete Crow-Armstrong had a great first half of 2025, but has struggled this year. Can he get back to that form from last year?
- Trey Yesavage will make his season debut on Tuesday, returning from a shoulder impingement.
