John Middleton reportedly seeking opinions from players on Gabe Kapler

The Philadelphia Phillies 2019 season has been over for more than a week now. They were eliminated from playoff contention on Sept. 24. It’s been a lot longer than that since the team was realistically viewed as a playoff contender. And still, there’s yet to be a resolution on the future of manager Gabe Kapler, who is under contract for the 2020 season.

In the latest development in Kapler watch, Matt Breen of The Philadelphia Inquirer says that managing partner John Middleton is seeking the input of some players. Exactly what players he’s interested in hearing from are unclear.
