00:00Braves manager breaks silence on retiring or not in 2026.
00:05With the 2025 regular season entering its final stretch,
00:08the Atlanta Braves are staring down a looming question that could define the franchise's next chapter.
00:14Will Brian Snitker return as manager in 2026?
00:18The silence has finally been broken.
00:20For the first time this season, the 68-year-old skipper who ranks third all-time in wins in Braves franchise history
00:27admitted he's still undecided about his future.
00:30I honestly don't know where I'm going to end up and what decision I'm going to make,

01:37when both the regular season concludes and a possible new era begins.
