Phillies: Prospects aren’t coming, but coaches need to go

An 8-1 loss to Colorado at home left Phillies fans as disgruntled as ever, calling for the heads of coaches, players, and executives across the organization.

Unfortunately, no one is going anywhere in this organization anytime soon for several reasons.

First is the coaching staff, which is the root of many fan’s frustrations. It was a bad move by the organization to give Pete Mackanin a short-term contract extension less than two weeks ago. Moving on from the manager after giving him a vote of confidence embarrasses the front office, and they aren’t in a position to make a move like that.
