Brian Snitker won’t return as Braves manager after 2025, ending a 10-year tenure and 50-year Braves career.

Brian Snitker will not return as Atlanta Braves manager beyond the 2025 season, the team confirmed, concluding a 10-year tenure as major league manager and nearly five decades in the organization. The 69-year-old, who led the Braves to a 2021 World Series title and seven postseason appearances, will remain with the team as a senior advisor and be inducted into the Braves Hall of Fame. His decision follows a 76-86 season and the team’s first postseason absence since 2017. While speculation about his future had grown, especially with Snitker turning 70, no formal search has begun. The Braves now face a managerial transition, with bench coach Walt Weiss among potential internal candidates.
