Atlanta Braves Hire Walt Weiss as Their Manager to Succeed Brian Snitker
Walt Weiss succeeds Brian Snitker as Braves manager after Snitker's retirement; Snitker will remain as an advisor, Braves officials said.
- Nov 3, 2025, the Atlanta Braves promoted Walt Weiss to manager, naming him successor to Brian Snitker.
- Snitker announced in early October that he would step away from managing and will transition into an advisory role beginning in 2026, with induction into the Braves Hall of Fame next year.
- Weiss, 61, brings eight seasons as Atlanta bench coach and four as Colorado Rockies manager, with two World Series titles including Atlanta's 2021 championship.
- Prioritizing continuity, the front office selected the bench coach for the top job after President of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos oversaw a monthlong search and scheduled a joint news conference at Truist Park on Tuesday.
- Franchise history shows only three managers over 36 seasons, underscoring continuity as the Braves logged seven postseason appearances and six NL East titles since Weiss joined the staff.
