After a disappointing loss in the National League Division Series to the New York Mets, the Philadelphia Phillies’ season ended a lot earlier than many expected. The loss has sparked conversations about what the club’s upcoming offseason could look like.
The largest conversation being had is in regards to the club’s offense. The lineup wasn’t consistent during the second half of the year. It struggled for most of the NLDS. There’s some thought a change at hitting coach could be on the horizon. It’s possible the front office looks to alter the lineup. Doing so would give them a chance to better diversify a group of hitters that don’t always make a lot of contact while chasing pitches at a high rate.
