PHILLIES NEWS

This is Just a brief report on the Phillies coaching staff for next season, I know this season just ended, but it's never too early to look ahead. The Phils announced today that Manager Charlie Manuel will be back next season, as will hitting coach Milt Thompson, catching instructor Mitch Billmeyer, and bullpen coach Ramon Henderson. However, 1st base coach Marc Bombard, 3rd base coach Bill Dancy, and bench coach Gary Varsho will not be back next season, so it should be interesting to see who the Phils bring in to replace those 3. Well, happy trails everyone.
