Kim Ng is out as general manager of the Miami Marlins after declining the mutual option on her contract for the 2024 season.
Marlins owner Bruce Sherman announced that the organization initially exercised its team option on Ng, the first woman to serve as GM in Major League Baseball history.
\"We thank Kim for her contribution during her time with our organization and wish her and her family well,\" Sherman said in a statement. \"We will immediately begin a thorough and extensive search for new leadership as we plan to continue to invest in the Marlins organization both on and off the field.\"
The Marlins hired Ng in November 2020.

So the team goes from zero to playoff team and they get rid of the GM? That's weird.

She left them. There was a mutual option, the Marlins said yes please, she declined it.

Boston would be smart to pick her up.

I suspect she felt she was deserving of more $ in a renegotiated (+ extended) contract, which the "zero to playoff" status might seemingly lend some credit to. Of course, I say that without knowing any of the specifics
Too bad for Marlins fans as she seems to be pretty good in the role.

I consider myself a sane, logical, biological male who works for a living and pays my bills. Interpret that as you will.
