It’s a good point. Jimenez is probably the guy with the best chance imo. I am not overly concerned with Minter either as he’s typically a guy who’s added velo in the postseason.
Anyone outside of Minter/Jimenez/Johnson/Iglesias/Hand against lefties is going to be hard on the nerves for me.
Yates’s usage is my biggest worry. I think Wright’s stuff could play up down there in a big way, too.

I think bullpen usage is pretty straightforward
Top 4 guys are Iggy, Minter, Johnson and Jimenez. Hand in tight spots against lefties. Yates the 6th guy I guess.
Tonkin to punt/eat innings and not the worst guy to have if you get deep in an extra innings game. Maybe Chavez takes this spot if what he did today continues.
Elder on the roster as injury insurance essentially early in a game.
Wright’s role is the biggest wild card to me. Could potentially be a high leverage weapon but not a lot of time left to work him into this role.
That’s your 12 guys. Anderson was apparently really bad last night in Gwinnett and I don’t see McHugh making it even if healthy. There’s been talk about Waldrep but he hasn’t been promoted to Gwinnett yet and Mississippi’s season is over.

Yates and Iglesias are by far my biggest worries.
After that, I'd be lying to say that I'm not concerned the way Jiminez has been trending lately. AJ is the biggest wild card of the bunch, he can be dominant one day and issuing a bases loaded walk on 4 pitches to Maldanado in the world series the next.
He can be such a head case sometimes. I get that is largely the case for all relievers, but it's been another level for him. He's been straight up dominant for long stretches for us, yet has a career ERA over 3.
2019 really bad, 2020 really good, 2021 really bad then really good, 2022 really good, 2023 really bad, really good
