Craig Kimbrel pitched the ninth inning while down by one run Friday against the Brewers. He walked one and struck out two.
Fantasy Impact
Kimbrel hadn't pitched since August 6, so it's likely David Ross just wanted him to get some reps. This was Kimbrel's first scoreless outing of the season, but for now, he probably won't find himself in closing situations. If he can string together a few consecutive performances like Friday's, he may find himself back in the closer's role.
