MLB rumors: Skip Schumaker emerges as candidate for Braves, Rangers head coach gigs

The Atlanta Braves have been in freefall mode for essentially the entire 2025 MLB season, currently sitting 11 games under the .500 mark after blowing a big lead on Saturday evening at home vs the New York Yankees. Things have somehow gotten even worse for the Braves since their 0-7 start to the campaign, and Atlanta is now in serious danger of missing the playoffs for the first time since the 2017 season.

Braves manager Brian Snitker, who coached the team to a World Series championship in 2021 but hasn't won a playoff series since, is expected by many to retire at the end of this season, raising the question of who will be his potential replacement in Atlanta.
