Braves predicted to shake up coaching staff, send vital coach packing with manager Brian Snitker originally appeared on The Sporting News
The Atlanta Braves are simply playing out the remainder of the season, with no realistic shot at making the playoffs — despite playing some of their best baseball right now. Due to a disappointing season and contract circumstances, manager Brian Snitker is likely nearing the end of his time at the helm.
“Because of that consistent recent success, Snit would normally be afforded a ‘mulligan’ year—even though going from the second-best preseason World Series odds to possibly the third-best odds of winning the draft lottery is a pretty serious mulligan,” Bleacher Report’s Kerry Miller wrote.
