MLB Trade Rumors contributor Tim Dierkes is reporting that Philadelphia Phillies’ major league player information coordinator Sam Fuld has declined to interview with the New York Mets, Chicago Cubs and San Diego Padres for each club’s open manager position.
Fuld was a career fourth-outfielder during his time in MLB. He spent part of his nine-year career with the Rays, A’s, Twins and Cubs. He retired in 2017 after missing two years due to a torn rotator cuff suffered in spring training of 2016.
The day Fuld officially announced his retirement, he was hired by the Phillies in his current role.
