Atlanta Braves to Choose Between Snitker, Black, Washington
Who to pick: the career insider, the Hart crony, or the Schuerholz crony? That is the list of candidates for a job that will shape the direction of the Atlanta Braves for the next few years.
The Atlanta Braves are set to choose their next manager from among three candidates… a decision that could be made and announced as soon as Monday.
From this perspective, there’s one choice that presents a lot less risk than the other two.
In the meantime, it seems likely that whatever the choice, the rest of the coaching staff is facing a shake-up as well. Roger McDowell, as we know, was advised this week that his contract option for 2017 would not be picked up. In addition, there is a report that first base coach Eddie Perez has been contacted by the Rockies about their managerial vacancy.

No word on whether Perez has opted for a formal interview at this point. Eddie managed the Tigers of Aragua during their 2015 campaign in additional to other VZWL teams in the past.
Let’s take a look at these finalists:
