Not really surprising, given how the Braves operate…
A few days ago, we posed a question about Brian Snitker’s continued tenure as the skipper of the Atlanta Braves. Well, the powers that be have tabulated what needed tabulating, and the results are below.
SB Nation
The image truncates the original choices a bit, so let’s elucidate them some more. While there’s a chance that he is shown the door in the middle of the season, given the Braves’ slow start, only 14 percent of respondents went with that option. After that, we had the possibility that he finishes the 2025 season but hangs up his proverbial cleats before 2026 — this is the option that the majority, nearly two-thirds of respondents chose. A poor season certainly lends itself to this outcome if not a midseason resignation or firing, and the Braves have some work to do to avoid falling into a poor season at this point. That leaves the third option of persisting into 2026 and beyond, which about a fifth of respondents selected.
Anyway, we have no record of who voted for what, but hang on to that memory so that when the Braves do (or don’t) eventually make a managerial change, you can point to these mid-April 2025 surveys and say, “I told you so.”
