"Kimbrel's one inning performance was a mix of luck and relief, leading to his designation after just one day back with the Braves."
"His history as fifth all-time in saves highlights the swift decline of Kimbrel's role after a single outing since his recall."
The Atlanta Braves designated reliever Craig Kimbrel for assignment just one day after his first appearance since 2014. Kimbrel pitched a scoreless inning, featuring one strikeout, but his performance brought mixed reviews regarding luck. Austin Cox was recalled as the corresponding move, and after being signed on a minor league contract, Kimbrel's future remains uncertain. With Kimbrel being fifth all-time in saves, his swift decline from the team raises questions about his viability moving forward in professional baseball.
