Phillies go silent, internal struggle over Gabe Kapler?

The Phillies offseason is officially 48 hours old, and the status of the much-maligned manager Gabe Kapler is still up in the air.

The organization has seemingly gone dark, wrestling over whether or not to keep a manager the front office has stood behind, but fans have voiced their displeasure with since day one.

As of 11 p.m. on Tuesday evening no word has come from the team despite many local and national reporters and pundits saying they believe Kapler will be gone.

A big sticking point is likely general manager Matt Klentak, who made Kapler his first manager hire since joining the Phillies in 2015.
