Phillies Hire Mattingly, Cora Passes on Offer
Description
The Phillies have appointed Don Mattingly as their interim manager for the remainder of the 2026 season, following the dismissal of Rob Thomson. Despite offering the position to Alex Cora, who previously won a World Series with Dave Dombrowski in 2018, Cora declined, preferring to spend time with his family. Mattingly, who last managed the Marlins in 2022, accepted the role despite expressing a lack of desire to manage again. As the Phillies prepare for the 2027 season, Cora remains the top candidate for the permanent position, but Mattingly and other potential candidates are also in the mix.
