The Pros and Cons of Hiring Kim Ng

Last week, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reported that the Phillies plan to interview Kim Ng in their search for a new general manager. Ng is one of a handful of candidates along with Larry Beinfest, Ross Atkins, Matt Klentak, J.J. Piccolo, Thad Levine, and Ben Cherington.

It’s not the first time Ng has been a candidate in a team’s search for a GM. She had interviewed with the Angels after the 2011 season, the Padres after the 2009 season, and the Dodgers in 2005. The Angels ultimately went with Jerry DiPoto, the Padres Jed Hoyer, and the Dodgers Ned Colletti.
