We've heard from Gabe Kapler. He admitted in this final week that, despite his public veneer, he can become quite frustrated and angry, especially when his team is in the midst of a hellish freefall and he has no idea how to stop it. As the losses mounted, you started to feel sorry for his chewing gum because it was taking a beating worse than the ones the Phillies absorbed during their four-day stay in Colorado.
The Phillies manager also confessed that he is seeking feedback in the form of anonymous surveys in order to figure out how he and the team can be better.
