Padres Interview Ozzie Guillen For Managerial Job

The Athletic’s Dennis Lin reports that the San Diego Padres interviewed former White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen for their vacant managerial position.

The Padres interviewed former White Sox and Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen for San Diego’s managerial opening, sources tell me and @Ken_Rosenthal. The interview took place last week.

Guillen was widely considered one of the bright managerial minds in baseball, and in 2005, he led the White Sox to their first World Series title since 1917. Towards the end of his tenure, disagreements with the White Sox general manager Kenny Williams led both sides to part in 2011.
