At the end of Season 4, Briggs was affected by the Alternate Reality Decree. At the end of Season 5, the Soul Swap blessing randomized Briggs' pitching stats from to .

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

During a notorious interview in XX23, Briggs revealed they did not know what a blaseball was, stating that they just "throw whatever I find in my hand," and appearing visibly perturbed and afraid when shown a picture of a ball.

Briggs has frequently expressed a desire to experience Incineration. "It gets pretty chilly out there on the mound some days," they were recorded saying to an Umpire in XX57. "I think it would do a body good to get some fire in my bones, ya know?"

During a game in the XX32 season, Briggs was ejected from the game and suspended for two games after it was discovered they had soaked their uniform in kerosene and were attempting to light a match before their start pitching against the Yellowstone Magic. This was deemed an attempt to gain an unfair advantage, and ruled as unsplortsmanlike behavior.

Following the Incinerations of both Sebastian Townsend and Atlas Jonbois within a five game span in Season 3, Briggs entered into a verbal altercation with an Umpire, reportedly saying "Why them and not me? How much more do I need to do?"

Briggs is currently described as having a "borderline obsession" with veteran player Jonbois, who was Incinerated after only two games. They keep a small shrine in their locker, which they have been spotted tearfully whispering to as part of their pregame ritual.

Despite this occasionally downbeat attitude, Briggs still frequently spends time watching sitcoms, such as Quilting Addict, Tunnel of Hands, and Cowardly, Slimy, Company, with new teammate Hotbox Sato. They are reportedly quite fond of one another, and Sato can even be found drifting in and out of Briggs's upper torso when particularly excited.

Briggs specializes in stealing horseshoes.

Alternate Reality

After the Alternate Reality decree passed at the end of Season 4, Briggs was swapped with a Snyder Briggs from an Alternate Reality.

The most noticeable difference between the New and Old Snyder is the new Snyder’s boiling blood, a condition that leaves him with body temperatures varying from 100 °C up to 380 °C. This makes the air around him ripple as it would around a cookout, and makes it appear as though his skin is steaming. The New Snyder also wears a mullet.

Another stark difference would be Snyder’s career with the Charleston Glove Bandits, an alternate-universe Sloccer team (whose lineup is otherwise identical to the Season 1 Shoe Thieves). Sloccer is a sport renowned for the lack of mortal danger it puts its players through; with no umpires, there are no umpires to go rogue. This has been something Briggs has had difficulty adjusting from after coming to the Shoe Thieves: "It would be different if it was just a mechanics issue. I can deal with mechanics. I can learn how to throw a sloccerball. But I don’t even know where to start with this. I thought that Matteo was traded out or something, man. Or that Doc had just…quit, y’know? I’m surprised this place hasn’t been sued into the ground by now."
