The Phillies announced tonight that hitting coach Milt Thompson has been relieved of his duties and Greg Gross, who has been the Ironpig’s hitting coach since 2008, will replace him.
Not only do the Pigs lose players.. they are losing coaches!
Good luck GG!!
OinK!




WOW…..I don’t even know what to say. Good luck GG!!
He (Greg Gross) put his time in and deserves it.
Now, find a quality replacement.
It’s never been so much the promotions and injuries, which are a part of the game, so much as the replacement part, ever so tricky for a Philadelphia team challenged by organizational depth.
What is Jorge Velandia doing and is his resume up to date?
HUPPERT STILL HERE!!! All these moves over the years with players and coaches, yet Huppert is still here. UUUGGGHH!! YYYUUUKKK!
doesn’t seem like Huppert has that fire in his belly anymore, to try to win a game when it’s within his grasp…
I believe Velandia is with Williamsport, still within the organization, and he was the first person I thought of when I heard this…
Then again, he (Huppert) called the six-year journeymen free agents “whores” in the paper this morning. I can’t believe they printed it. Perhaps he does have some fire left…
Jorge Valendia is Curently with the Crosscutters he is there batting Coach
