Daily News | Philly’s 2022 surprises: Phillies and Rob Thomson, Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni, and much more
The past year didn’t produce the best stories in Philadelphia sports history, but it certainly produced the most unexpected successes.
Nobody knew much about “Topper,” a baseball lifer who’d never managed so much as a Quickie Mart and entered 2022 as a bench coach bent on retirement back in Canada. He exited 2022 in fifth place in the National League manager of the year race. Promoted to replace Joe Girardi as interim manager on June 3, Thomson immediately rearranged and changed philosophies with the bullpen, set the lineup and left it alone, and decompressed a clubhouse wound tighter than Girardi’s gluteus maximus..
The injured elbow forced Harper to be used exclusively as the designated hitter, which put butcher Nick Castellanos in right field full-time ... where he madeRhys Hoskins, around whom the lineup was built, beginning with Harper, hit six homers in his first 14 postseason games.Perhaps most incredibly, none of it would have happened if Major League Baseball hadn’t expanded the playoffs to include a seventh team in each league.
Hurts played poorly in the postseason, so the Eagles spent much of their time in the winter and spring dickering for a big-name replacement — time wasted, as it turned out. By Game 14 of 2022, Hurts was the odds-on favorite to win the MVP award, having led the Eagles to a 13-1 record with the best passer rating in the NFL and a chance to break the team record for quarterback rushing yards in a season.
