Rob Thomson is safe for 2026 sources tell me and @Joelsherman1 @nypostsports
Although some decisions, such as the Game 2 bunt, were questionable, most Phillies fans agree that the bats were the biggest problem. Trea Turner, Bryce Harper, and Kyle Schwarber went 1 for 14 in game four with four strikeouts, and the team plated only 2.3 runs per game in games 1, 2, and 4.
A stronger case for firing could be made for Kevin Long than Rob Thomson.
