Braves make pair of coaching staff promotions

The Atlanta Braves on Monday announced the addition of three coaches, two of them internal promotions, to manager Brian Snitker's staff for the 2024 season.

The team named Matt Tuiasosopo, Tom Goodwin, and Erick Abreu as third base, first base, and bullpen coach, respectively. Additionally, Braves bench coach Walt Weiss had his responsibilities expanded to include oversight of the team's infield.

Tuiasosopo, 37, joins the Braves' staff as third base coach after spending the last three season's managing Atlanta's Triple-A affiliate, where he led the team to a 210-215 record. This is his first appointment to an MLB staff, and he will assist Weiss with the Braves' infield.
