Former Blue Jays bench coach takes over the reigns in Philadelphia
"Don Mattingly's managerial experience includes leading the Miami Marlins to their first playoff appearance in 17 years, where they fell to the Atlanta Braves in the ALDS."
"Mattingly's most notable managerial run was with the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he led the team to the postseason in three consecutive years, including a trip to the NLCS."
"Thomson's firing comes as a surprise after he led the Phillies to the 2022 World Series in his first season as Philadelphia's skipper."
"The Phillies rank 29th in MLB in batting, which contributed to the decision to dismiss Thomson after a drastic drop in performance."
Don Mattingly has been hired as the new manager of the Philadelphia Phillies following the dismissal of Rob Thomson due to a poor start to the season. Mattingly previously served as the bench coach for the Toronto Blue Jays and has not held a managerial position since 2022. His managerial experience includes leading the Miami Marlins to their first playoff appearance in 17 years and a successful run with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Thomson's firing was unexpected given his previous success with the team.
