The rest of the coaching staff behind Rob Thomson will remain unchanged. Calitri replaced Thomson as the Phillies’ bench coach in 2022 when Joe Girardi was fired and Thomson stepped in as interim manager and had remained in the role ever since. That seemed to set him up to become the team’s manager of the future, but now they want to look outside the organization for a possible heir.

As of the moment, Thomson, who had his 2026 option picked up a year ago, would be a lame duck. The Phillies are 346-251 since Thomson replaced Joe Girardi about two months into the 2022 season, but their postseason results have been getting worse; they lost in the World Series in 2022, the NLCS in 2023 and the NLDS the last two years.
