Braves shake up player development (again) with removal of Dom Chiti, AJ Scola, others

In October of last year, I wrote about a lot of the turmoil that was within the Braves’ player development program in addition to the operations of the minor leagues as a whole at that point in time. The prevailing wisdom was that while these changes, including the loss of Dave Trembley, Randy Ingle, and others, were drastic...the hope was that these were just the changes that were inevitable under a new front office with different goals and philosophies. For some even now, many of those changes were seen as mistakes and are still jarring for an organization that prided itself on personnel stability in addition to producing top flight talent.
