Title: First Asian and first female GM quit despite the success she contributed
Post by: theking on October 16, 2023, 11:11:33 PM

Kim Ng, first female general manager, leaves Marlins for same reason Derek Jeter did

Ng's reason aligns with what Jeter said when he described why he stepped down. But her departure comes immediately after the Marlins enjoyed their most successful season in 20 years, unexpectedly making the playoffs after Ng bolstered the roster at the trade deadline with major contributors Josh Bell and Jake Burger.

Ng is also credited for several smart player acquisitions, including her recent deals for third baseman Jake Burger and first baseman Josh Bell. The Marlins manager Skip Schumaker has voiced the utmost respect for Ng's leadership.
