The search for Brian Snitker's replacement is not one that the Atlanta Braves are taking likely. Rather than just going with an internal candidate to get the process over quickly, it is clear that the Braves are being very methodical and taking care to find a new manager that could be in place for a long time. There have already been some popular names connected to the opening like David Ross, Walt Weiss, and John Gibbons, but one name is starting to gain more traction than the others.
There were already whispers that the Braves were interested in Dodgers coach Danny Lehmann since the early days of the search.
