00:00Braves Insider Reveals Sneaky Hint at Snitker's Replacement
00:03The Atlanta Braves are about to enter a new era, and maybe even a bold one.
00:08For almost a month, the team has waited quietly to announce who will take over for Brian Snicker.
00:13Now, as the World Series nears its end, a leading candidate has stepped forward,
00:18and according to a team insider, it's looking like Dodgers bench coach Danny Lehman.
00:23Snitker's retirement wasn't a surprise, but it leaves a big gap.
00:26At 69, he was the oldest manager in the National League.
00:31His steady leadership helped the Braves reach the playoffs year after year.
00:35With him, Atlanta became more than just a winning team.
00:38They built a strong culture and earned respect.
00:41His departure wasn't dramatic, just the end of a well-respected career.
00:45It still left fans wondering, what's next?
00:48That future could mean significant change, and Danny Lehman is no household name yet.
00:53At just 38, he is young, deeply analytical, and comes from a Dodgers organization that has thrived on innovation and precision.
01:02His connection to Braves president of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos dates nearly a decade to shared time in Los Angeles.
01:10It's built on mutual respect.
01:13This possible new hire shows that the Braves aren't just sticking with what's familiar.
01:17They want to grow and move forward.
01:19Lehman has never managed a major league team, and that's a risk.
01:24Still, he has spent years learning game preparation, strategy, and modern scouting within a successful organization.
01:31If he gets the job in Atlanta, it won't be as a traditional manager, but as a modern, data-driven leader.
01:38That kind of shift can be jarring, but it could also be transformative.
01:41Chasing another championship, Atlanta aims to blend analytics with intuition and passion with process, building the future, not just filling a vacancy.
