"One more day until the start of the World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays. Until then, there's a lot questions and not as many answers on things like the Braves manager situation, 2026 payroll, free agency and all the other topics of consternation for Braves fans until five days after the World Series."
"With news yesterday that Danny Lehmann, the current Dodgers bench coach, may be a leading candidate for the Atlanta Braves open managerial position, did you know that it has been almost 50 years since the Braves have hired a manager who had no prior ties to the organization as a player, manager, coach or in the case of the single game that Ted Turner managed, owner?"
One day remains before the World Series between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays. Many Braves-related questions remain unresolved, including the managerial vacancy, 2026 payroll planning, free agent activity, and other fan concerns. Danny Lehmann, the Dodgers bench coach, emerged as a leading candidate for the Braves’ open managerial position. The Braves have not hired an outsider with no prior ties to the organization since Dave Bristol’s 1976 hiring. Dave Bristol, now 92, remains the most recent Braves manager without prior roles as a player, manager, coach, or owner within the organization.
