SAD NEWS: Coach Brian Snitker has finally left the Atlanta braves due to......

For the Atlanta Braves, 2023 was a fantastic season. The club was extremely hot at the plate from March to September, hitting 307 home runs in that time. With nearly every game he played, Ronald Acuña Jr. solidified his position as the National League MVP, making his roster nearly flawless. However, in October, the same potent rotation faltered. Once more.

Maybe it’s ridiculous how the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Braves to secure the NLCS position last year, almost to the day. Does that play-off deficit hurt Atlanta since the team plays well enough during the regular season to avoid the Wild Card round? Brian Snitker, the manager, finds it hard to accept.

For Philadelphia, 2022 was a memorable year as they ended an 11-year postseason drought. After falling to the Houston Astros in the Fall Classic, the team is even more motivated in 2023. But did that give the squad with a 100-win season any justification? The National League’s strongest regular season squad is unjustified in the eyes of Atlanta’s captain. In fact, he uses the Houston Astros as an illustration.

Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports that Brian Snitker will not cite the team’s five-day vacation as a justification for the Braves cooling down when they ought to have been playing at their best.
