Philadelphia Phillies Hire Charlie Manuel As New Hitting Coach, Fire John Mallee

Charlie Manuel will be back in the Philadelphia Phillies dugout. In a shocking move, the Phillies announced the former World Series-winning manager is the team’s new hitting coach after firing John Mallee. Their offense has underperformed despite the addition of slugger Bryce Harper, All-Star J.T. Realmuto, two-time All-Star Jean Segura, and former 2013 MVP Andrew McCutchen, who suffered a season-ending knee injury in June. It reached a boiling point in the four-game series against the San Francisco Giants as the Phillies were one-hit. Heading into Tuesday night’s game against the Chicago Cubs, the Phillies are 19th in runs, 24th in batting average (.245), and 23rd in home runs (149).
