Former Philadelphia Phillies general manager Matt Klentak is leaving the organization to become a special assistant with the Milwaukee Brewers, according to Ken Rosenthal and Matt Gelb of The Athletic.
Klentak, now 41, served as the strategy and development officer for the Phillies in 2021, following five seasons as the general manager. He was reassigned within the organization after the Phillies failed to snap a lengthy postseason drought in 2020, in large part because of a historically-bad bullpen. Prior to joining the Phillies, Klentak spent four seasons as the assistant general manager for the Los Angeles Angels.
