Tyler Kinley

Tyler Kinley signed a major-league contract with the Tigers on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Kinley was released by the Braves last week. The veteran righty made 49 appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen this year, posting a 4.01 ERA and a 42-20 K/BB ratio across 42 2/3 innings. Ty Madden was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

The Braves designated RHP Tyler Kinley for assignment.

Fantasy Impact

Kinley loses his spot on the 40-man roster to make room for AJ Smith-Shawver.

Tyler Kinley worked a scoreless 10th inning to earn the save in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

Kinley grabbed his first save of the season Sunday, as he made a one-run lead hold up in the 10th and helped the Braves avoid a three-game sweep at Yankee Stadium. Kinley lowered his ERA to 3.95 through 47 relief appearances this season. He will return to his typical middle-relief role going forward, so do not look for many more, if any, save chances the rest of the way.

Tyler Kinley (paternity) has rejoined the Braves ahead of Friday's game in St. Louis.

Fantasy Impact

Kinley has been away from the team the last few days on paternity leave, but he will be back in the bullpen for this weekend's series with the Cardinals. Hurston Waldrep was optioned back to Triple-A.

The Braves placed Tyler Kinley on the paternity list.

Fantasy Impact

Kinley will be away from the team for a few days.
