Episode Notes
The Phillies have hired Don Mattingly to be their bench coach in 2026.
We love the hire. But how does it help the Phillies? Well, of course, it could help their late-game decision making. But if you read between the lines, Phillies manager Rob Thomson hinted that Mattingly’s star power should bring increased credibility to the coaching staff. The Phillies are trying to tighten up things, and they believe Mattingly should help.
We dig into J.T. Realmuto’s free agency. We talk about the chance Bo Bichette signs with the Phillies, too.
