Ron Washington will be departing the Braves as ex-Atlanta executive Perry Minasian and the Angels hired him as their new manager. He reportedly may also take Braves’ first base coach Eric Young Sr. with him to join his staff. This is bittersweet for many Braves fans and member of the organization. Washington was nearly universally liked in the organization and the fanbase and has been interviewed as a manager candidate for the last two years. It’s great to see him get the opportunity that there is every reason to think he has earned, but he will also be sorely missed by Braves country.
