The biggest announcement today will come later tonight in the Presidential election, however, the Philadelphia Phillies announced late Tuesday morning a plethora of coaching hires, changes, and promotions throughout the organization.

These are a lot of moves, and solid one’s in my opinion. Matt Klentak and company are solidyfing the front office and building something for the future, which is much improved from this disaster Ruben Amaro Jr. was overseeing.
Also of note is that Greg Legg is the new Reading Fightins manager as he replaces Dusty Wathan, who was promoted to the manager of the Lehigh Valley IronPigs after Dave Brundage was let go.
