As soon as they brought that stooge doofus Fredi Gonzalez back into the building, it was so freaking over. I have seen more heart out of a dead man rotting in his casket than I have seen out of the\u00a0Atlanta Braves\u00a0in days, weeks, months and even years. Brian Snitker needs to go.<\/p>\n<p>He could have gotten a golden parachute after this year, but he somehow destroyed the ripcord on the way down.<\/p>\n<p>In a season full of nothing but disappointment and despair, the Braves somehow found a way to lose their worst game of the season. They were up 10-4 on getaway day vs. the\u00a0Arizona Diamondbacks\u00a0at home. Rather than have somebody six Coors Lights in come in from out of The Chop House to close the game, Snitker went with old reliable, Raisel Iglesias. I trust Enrique Iglesias more than I do Raisel.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Rather than take ownership for the saddest bag of crap I have ever seen grace a baseball diamond, Snitker would not take ownership for the loss. He said as much postgame.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">&#8220;You gotta do your job and play better &#8230; it&#8217;s a horrible loss. Now we have to sit on it for five hours. It will be miserable, it should be miserable. They should be miserable, too.&#8221; I would not let Snitker get on that plane to San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">If only Atlanta Braves Holdings was not so grossly consumed with lustfully acquiring more territory&#8230;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"min-h-[550px]\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1930710199167279318&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Ffansided.com%2Fbraves-fans-want-brian-snitker-fired-yesterday-after-latest-deflecting-rant&amp;sessionId=a31bfa9818b0eb808a6a8670681b53c3e734cff7&amp;siteScreenName=fansided&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-uw-rm-iframe=\"gn\" data-tweet-id=\"1930710199167279318\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">At this point, let&#8217;s just have Chipper Jones come off the street and be the manager Atlanta deserves.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"scroll-mt-24 my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Brian Snitker should have managed his final game with Atlanta Braves<\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Truthfully, it is not all his fault. General manager Alex Anthopoulos needs to come down from his ivory tower, put his perfectly quaffed hair into the locks, and let a bunch of rabid, angry and confused members of Braves Country throw rotten tomatoes at his face until he gets the point.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Just because a guy turns 30 does not mean you should let a man with dog living inside him walk in\u00a0MLB\u00a0free agency!<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">What has ruined this team more than anything is Anthopoulos&#8217; decisions to extend emerging star players in their core far before they are ready for it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Rather than pay Freddie Freeman, Dansby Swanson and Max Fried, among others, he gave money to guys like Austin Riley, Michael Harris II and even Spencer Strider before he needed to.<\/p>\n<p class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">None of them have lived up to their new contracts one bit.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">At this point, should Chris Sale and Ronald Acu\u00f1a Jr. be co-player\/coaches?
