Former Mets manager Mickey Callaway could potentially find a soft landing.

Callaway, who was relieved of his duties by the Mets on Thursday, "could be a candidate" to replace outgoing Phillies pitching coach Chris Young, reports Todd Zolecki of MLB.com.

Callaway was the pitching coach for the Indians from 2013 to 2017, overseeing a staff that included Corey Kluber, Carlos Carrasco, and Trevor Bauer.

Zolecki lists Ray Searage and Rich Dubee as two other potential candidates for the Phillies job.

Philadelphia has not yet decided the fate of manager Gabe Kapler, who led the Phils to an 81-81 record this season during what was his second year at the helm.
