Preston Mattingly, son of former baseball star Don Mattingly, has been appointed as the general manager of the Philadelphia Phillies. Mattingly will work alongside current GM Sam Fuld, who is pursuing a Master of Business Administration degree at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School and is set to transition to the role of president of business operations upon completion of his studies in May 2026.
Phillies' president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski expressed confidence in the abilities of Mattingly and Fuld, highlighting their exceptional qualities and strong working relationship. Dombrowski, who is under contract with the team until 2027, sees Mattingly as a potential long-term leader for the organization.
