1. Sub one era and a nice save merits a nickname. Henceforth he shall be known by me as a history nerd as Michael “Vietnam” Tonkin. And that’s all I have to say about that.

2. “The Resolution” Michael Tonkin. Because when he comes in the game, it’s over.

3. At this point, I’m just going to assume they know what they’re when they pick up some nobody with a long history of being bad.

4. Aka The White Mariano Rivera.

5. Remember when we first got him we tossed him into an extra innings game

6. Michaeliano Tonkivera

7. Michael “Honky” Tonkin

8. El Diablo Blanco

9. The Tonkanator.

10. The Tonkin Truck delivers again

11. Move over Clay
