Here's an article on Black when it was thought that he was being hired by the Nationals: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/nationals-journal/wp/2015/10/29/bud-black-washington-nationals-choice-to-be-manager-known-for-his-communication/

Snitker going to bring Leo back!!!! Actually, this sounds like they will probably be hiring Bud Black. Ugh!

I guess one thing that Bud Black has in his corner is that he was a player for John Schuerholz in Kansas City and for John Hart in Cleveland. Even so, how do you just ignore what Snitker did and the rapport he has with his players?

JS is one of the best GMs in baseball history. He will and should get in.

I agree with you that I don't really care for the advanced stats approach, but I'm not sure why you think the team should go outside the organization when Brian Snitker did a better job with this bunch than anyone could have dreamed about.

1. Brian Snitker 2. Ron Washington 3. Bud Black I don't see how Snitker doesn't get this job though. If they pass on giving it to Snitker, they are going to have to explain the reasoning to every player on this team. I think it runs the risk of tearing down what was built up over the last...

It really should be an easy decision to hire Snitker for this job.

Commit to Snit!!!

The only similarities between Julio Teheran and Rick Mahler is that they both played for the Braves. That's it.

The Braves have the 4th most wins in baseball since July 25th.

I have some concerns about Coppy since he isn't a real baseball guy, but he has surrounded himself with strong baseball guys in Roy Clark, Gordon Blakeley, Brian Bridges, Rick Williams.....etc. Brian Snitker is the obvious choice for manager though.

There is a reason for that, IMO. They now have a manager that engenders tremendous loyalty from his players. Whether you agree with his "strategy" or not, these players would run through a brick wall for Brian Snitker. It's been a long time since a Braves team has played with this type of...

Oh man! This Vin Scully speech! Chills!!

If I'm looking at it correctly, the Braves are 31-33 since the ASB. They are 25-23 since getting Matt Kemp. Overall, they are 53-63 under Brian Snitker this year. They will avoid 100 losses on the year with one more win.

There is no such thing as a meaningless game.

I said it last year. Atlanta has the best scouting staff in baseball. Whether they pick 1st or 5th, they are going to get a great player.

The Braves are now 23-23 since August 1st.

I think Eddie Perez went back to his playing days there. He was ready to take someone out.

The last time the Braves system had 4 of the 6 teams in their respective playoffs was 1989. Two years later, the Atlanta team was in the World Series.

Wait. I thought Austin Riley didn't have any bat speed. The Braves shouldn't worry about years under control, mostly because John Hart has always been one that buys out arby years in his young players. Guys like Albies, Swanson, Riley....if they are as advertised, they will be signed to an...
