The Atlanta Braves managerial search has begun, and there are a few candidates available to consider. Alex Anthopoulos spoke with the media on Saturday to discuss plans for the offseason. He obviously spoke about the focus being on shortstop, the bullpen, and the starting rotation. However, the more pressing need is to find a manager. Anthopoulos made sure to quell speculation that he forced Brian Snitker to retire as manager.
With all of that out of the way, AA stated that the team would begin reaching out to replacement candidates on Saturday as well. There have been plenty of rumors surrounding the people available and who would be a great fit.
