The Phillies could soon lose Sam Fuld to the Boston Red Sox
The Philadelphia Phillies have already lost their pitching and bullpen coaches this offseason, among other notable subtractions including general manager; soon, they could lose another key member — this time from their analytics department.
Phillies Director of Integrative Baseball Performance, Sam Fuld, is a finalist to become the next manager of the Boston Red Sox, according to MLB insider Jon Heyman.
Joining Fuld on the short Red Sox managerial candidate list to replace interim manager Ron Roenicke includes Carlos Mendoza, New York Yankees Bench Coach; Don Kelly, Pittsburgh pirates Bench Coach; James Rowson, Miami Marlins Bench Coach; and Alex Cora, who Heyman claims is the most likely to land the position.
