**Alex Cora leads the market for the Phillies’ next manager at 31% implied probability, reflecting president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski’s established relationship with the former Red Sox skipper and the club’s earlier interest in him.** In late April 2026, after firing Rob Thomson amid a 9-19 start, Philadelphia offered the position to Cora, who had just been dismissed by Boston; he declined to prioritize family time, leading to Don Mattingly’s appointment as interim manager through the season. Mattingly, whose son Preston serves as general manager, has guided the club to an 81-63 record and second place in the NL East, keeping him in contention at 18%. Reports indicate Cora remains the frontrunner for a full-time role heading into 2027 unless Mattingly delivers a deep playoff run. Other names like Bruce Bochy and Ryan Flaherty trail as longer-shot internal or external options amid the typical offseason managerial cycle.
