Tonkin was a dumpster fire at the end of the season, but he's on the roster.

No McPuke, Grissom is on, Yates and Tonkin on, Wall is on. No other surprises I don’t think. It’s funny how every year Snitwit has to have his designated pinch runner, taking up a spot just for that. It rarely really ever comes into play. Yates was in all year, Snitker loves him in tight late inning games. I’d rather have had Chavez and Heller than Tonkin and Hernandez, but Heller is on Snits black list for whatever reason. If Shawver was an option why wasn’t he up pitching with us the last month. Too many things never make sense with Saggysack’s decisions.

I don't even have words... I don’t know why this man can’t just stay the hell out of the way. Why does he go full Rafiki every playoff season trying to pull things out of his butt instead of just using his regular lineup and let the guys play? What the hell is with Riley batting 2nd? The one miracle is at least Murphy is catching.

David O'Brien @dobrienatl · 1h Kyle Wright will need a surgical procedure of some kind on his shoulder and is expected to miss all of the 2024 season, #Braves manager Brian Snitker said. MRI Friday revealed damage.

The one miracle is at least Murphy is catching. He wants to show off his amazing mad managering skillz. Funny how the Braves did their best when he trotted the same lineup and same batting order for most of the season, and then he does this. I would like to think it better produce or he will get roasted, but he won't.

I care that Eddie hits lefties better than Pillar, but sometimes Snit goofs his way into something that works out.
Same thing with the lineup. It's pretty stupid to be moving Riley to 2nd and Olson to 3rd with the way he's produced at cleanup, but maybe it wont matter and everyone can rave about what a genius Snitker is.
I think however the man is a much better manager when he doesn't have multiple days off to think. Thinking isn't his strong suit.

During the season the lineup was working fine . In the post season he wants Olson to have a chance to have as many at bats as possible. By moving him up to 3rd gives him a better chance of that happening. Why not just move Riley down? Snitker doesn't want to upset Riley's delicate psyche.
