Phillies manager Rob Thomson will return to his position in 2026 despite another early postseason exit, according to a report by Jon Heyman and Joel Sherman of the New York Post.
Philadelphia lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League Division Series last week, making it two NLDS losses after winning the NL East and earning a first-round playoff bye in the past two Octobers. The Phillies have improved in the regular season each year under Thomson, but the playoff results have stagnated since the club’s surprise run to the World Series in 2022.
