Braves insider's wild Brian Snitker replacement idea is just crazy enough to work

In the wake of Brian Snitker's announcement that he is retiring as the Atlanta Braves manager, there has been no shortage of takes out there as to who should replace him as the Braves' skipper. Bench coach Walt Weiss is a popular option as an internal candidate that the clubhouse is very familiar with. Skip Schumaker was a popular external name earlier this year, but now it feels like he is going to take over the Rangers' job and former catcher David Ross has his supporters as well. However, there is a chance Atlanta could go with a much more outside-the-box option from the college ranks.
