Atlanta Braves To Call Up RHP Tyrell Jenkins

The Atlanta Braves are set to call up right-handed pitcher Tyrell Jenkins on Thursday. The Braves play the Cincinnati Reds at 12:30pm ET so for the quick turn-around, we will need an extra bullpen arm. I’m guessing we’ll see him on the mound today since the Braves used so many arms last night.

Jenkins is the Braves 8th ranked prospect in the minor leagues and has been pitching really well in Gwinnett. He was recently moved to the bullpen in Gwinnett because of the amount of pitches in his arsenal.

I think this is a great move for the Braves and I hope he stays in Atlanta.
