June 18: IN-GAME -- Is Charlie safe?

A few minutes before today's game, Pat Gillick addressed reporters who were curious about Charlie Manuel's job security. It was a legitimate question, especially since the Phillies have lost six straight games, fallen two games below .500 and are four games behind the Cincinnati Reds in the loss column in the wild card race.

"No change," Gillick said about Manuel's status.

Then, he expounded ...

Asked if Manuel is doing a satisfactory job, Gillick said, "I think he is. He can't go out and play."

Your thoughts?

I'll have more after the game and in Monday's News Journal (www.delawareonline.com).

Happy Father's Day.
