Mike Scioscia reportedly would have interest in managing Phillies

The Philadelphia Phillies managerial job isn’t currently open. But if the organization elects to move on from Gabe Kapler at the end of the 2019 season, there’s apparently an accomplished MLB manager that has interest in the position.

In the latest edition of “Big Time Baseball” on RADIO.COM Sports, Jon Heyman says that he’s heard that former Los Angeles Angels manager Mike Scioscia would be interested in managing the Phillies.

Born in Upper Darby, Scioscia managed the Angels from 2000-2018. Most notably, he guided the Angels to their first World Series title in 2002, a seven-game series that they won over Barry Bonds and the San Francisco Giants.
