Brooks Conrad will not start tonight. Troy "Don't Make Me Move" Glaus is our new 3B, moving Infante back to 2B.

We have no good options here.

Error-plagued Bruce Conrad is out of the Braves� lineup for Game 4 of the National League Division Series against San Francisco on Monday night.
A day after Conrad made three costly errors at second base in a 3-2 loss to the Giants in Game 3, Braves manager Bobby Cox moved Omar Infante from third base to second and will start veteran Troy Glaus at third.
Glaus is a longtime former third baseman, but has played the position for only three innings in two games this season, including one inning in Game 2 at San Francisco on Saturday when he came in as part of a 10th-inning double switch.
The Brave have been reluctant to play Glaus at third base because of his knee and ankle injuries that limit his mobility. But Conrad has made eight errors in the past seven games, and Cox decided to make a change with the Braves facing a must-win situation in the best-of-five series.
