New manager Joe Girardi is wasting no time in getting down to business in filling out his coaching staff. According to Matt Gelb, he has found his pitching coach.
The Phillies have hired Bryan Price as pitching coach, sources told @TheAthleticMLB. Price turned down offers from at least two other teams — Arizona and San Diego. He was coveted this month.

Price has all the makings of a good hire for the Phillies. Before acting as the manager of Cincinnati Reds in 2014 through 2018, he was the pitching coach for Seattle (‘01-’06) and Arizona (‘07-’09).
