Philadelphia Phillies pitching coach Bryan Price (John David Mercer-USA TODAY Sports)
Bryan Price has walked away as Phillies pitching coach, despite two years remaining on his contract.
This offseason, the Philadelphia Phillies will have to find their fifth different pitching coach in as many seasons. Manager Joe Girardi first learned midday Sunday that Bryan Price was stepping away as the team’s pitching coach. Nearly six hours later, the announcement became official.
Girardi was caught off-guard that the 58-year-old — who was the first coaching hire he made to his staff last fall — decided to step away after just one season with the team.
