BRAVES BRING BACK JACOB WEBB

The Atlanta Braves acquired pitcher Jacob Webb from the Arizona Diamondbacks for cash.

What does it give the Atlanta Braves
Adding Webb brings back a familiar face for the bullpen. He had been in Atlanta prior to being claimed off waivers earlier in 2022. Therefore, it should be a smooth transition back to the Braves for Webb.

What does it give the Arizona Diamondbacks
The Diamondbacks recently designated Webb for assignment, so they took back cash from the team that originally lost him to waivers. Webb never really got going with Arizona. It was time to move on.

Fantasy impact
Do not pick Webb up in fantasy leagues at this time. Wait until he reestablishes himself within the Braves bullpen and carves out a role.
