Braves continue to bolster bullpen by signing right-hander Tyler Kinley to $3M, 1-year deal
- On Saturday the Atlanta Braves signed right-hander Tyler Kinley to a one-year $3 million contract for 2026 with a 2027 club option valued at $5.5 million and a $1.25 million buyout.
- Amid an active offseason Atlanta Braves reshaped their bullpen by signing Robert Suarez and re-signing closer Raisel Iglesias, while Kinley's option was declined but later re-signed on a cheaper deal.
- After Atlanta acquired him July 30, Tyler Kinley went 5-0 with a 0.72 ERA over 25 innings and allowed a 29.6% hard-hit rate while averaging 22 strikeouts.
- To clear a 40-man spot Atlanta designated left-handed pitcher Ken Waldichuk for assignment, and Tyler Kinley could pitch seventh innings with Dylan Lee or cover eighth and ninth innings if Robert Suarez or Raisel Iglesias rest.
- With spring training set for Feb. 21, the contract can reach $8.5 million including a $1.25 million buyout, and the Braves still prioritize adding a starting pitcher.
