<\/main>The Atlanta Braves have had Brian Snitker as their manager since 2016. He has won a World Series, but he is reportedly expected to retire.<\/p>\n

Snitker is 69 years old, and his contract expires after this season. Once the season ends, he will have been with the organization for 50 years. If he does retire, he will leave an attractive manager job vacant.<\/p>\n

The Braves have plenty of talent and could quickly become World Series contenders again next season.\u00a0ESPN’s Buster Olney\u00a0noted that former Miami Marlins manager Skip Schumaker could be an option to take the Braves job.<\/p>\n

Schumaker is currently working with the Texas Rangers, and Olney also called him an option to replace Bruce Bochy. However, Bochy could continue to manage the Rangers next season, while the Braves job could open next year.<\/p>\n

Schumaker was named the National League Manager of the Year in 2023 with the Marlins. He led the Marlins to the postseason and posted an 84-win season. He did not follow the 2023 season with a great season last year, but the Braves roster could provide him with a chance at a World Series.<\/p>\n

The Braves won the World Series in 2021 under Snitker. Their roster features Ronald Acu\u00f1a Jr., Austin Riley, Matt Olson, Chris Sale, Spencer Strider and other key players. Most of their stars signed for years to come and Schumaker could be set up for success.<\/p>\n

Snitker recently won his 800th game as the Braves manager. Whoever fills his shoes will have a tough act to follow. However, replacing one former NL Manager of the Year with another could be a great move for the Braves.<\/p>\n
