Angels' Jacob Webb: Sent out to minor-league camp
Webb was reassigned Friday to the minor-league side of Angels camp.
Webb impressed with 10 strikeouts over eight scoreless innings this spring in the Cactus League, but he'll open the 2023 season in the bullpen at Triple-A Salt Lake. He could be a contributor for the Halos at some point this year.

Braves' Jacob Webb: Shipped back to Atlanta
Atlanta acquired Webb from Arizona on Tuesday in exchange for cash considerations.
Atlanta placed reliever Collin McHugh on the COVID-19-related injured list to open up room on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster for Webb, who is back with the organization after he was previously waived and claimed by the Diamondbacks in April. Webb has pitched exclusively at the Triple-A level this season, but he supplied a 4.19 ERA and 1.51 WHIP in 34.1 innings with Atlanta in 2021.

Webb was claimed off waivers by the Diamondbacks in mid-April, and he made five relief appearances at Triple-A Reno.

Diamondbacks' Jacob Webb: Scooped up by Snakes
Arizona claimed Webb off waivers from Atlanta on Tuesday and optioned him to Triple-A Reno, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.
The Diamondbacks cleared room for the right-handed reliever on the 40-man roster by designating outfielder Stuart Fairchild for assignment. Though Webb will begin his tenure in the Arizona organization at Triple-A, a promotion to the Diamondbacks could come in short order, given the lack of established middle-relief options in the big-league bullpen. Webb owns a 2.47 ERA and .240 batting average against over 78 career MLB relief appearances.

Braves' Jacob Webb: DFA'd by Atlanta
Webb was designated for assignment by Atlanta on Tuesday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
Webb failed to make the Opening Day roster and has now lost his spot on Atlanta's 40-man roster. The 28-year-old had a 1.39 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 28:12 K:BB over 32.1 innings during 2019, but he had a 4.19 ERA and 1.51 WHIP last year. Atlanta selected the contract of Jackson Stephens in a corresponding move.

Braves' Jacob Webb: Bid for Opening Day roster ends
Atlanta optioned Webb to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.
One of Atlanta's more impressive relievers in the 2019 and 2020 seasons, Webb's performance took a major step back during the team's run to the World Series in 2021. He worked almost exclusively in low-leverage spots last season, accruing one save and no holds over 34 appearances while logging a 4.19 ERA and 1.51 WHIP. With Atlanta improving its relief ranks this offseason with the pickups of Kenley Jansen and Collin McHugh, the team had no room in its Opening Day bullpen for Webb.

Braves' Jacob Webb: One-out save
Webb recorded a one-out save Saturday against the Mets, allowing two walks and tossing a wild pitch.
Webb clinched his first save of the season Saturday as he recorded the final out of the game, but it wasn't a relaxed outing by any means -- he walked Michael Conforto and Pete Alonso to load the bases before retiring Jonathan Villar on a groundout. Webb has now tossed two straight scoreless outings, and if he doesn't pitch Sunday, he'll end the season with a 4.19 ERA over 34.1 innings.

Braves' Jacob Webb: Earns win in relief
Webb (5-3) earned the win in relief Monday against the Diamondbacks after tossing a scoreless inning, striking out two.
Webb pitched the fifth inning and was extremely effective, needing just 13 pitches (eight strikes) to get the job done. He extended his streak of appearances without allowing an earned run to 14 (15 innings) and continues to be a reliable arm out of the bullpen for Atlanta.

Braves' Jacob Webb: Picks up loss in extras
Webb (4-3) was tagged with the loss Friday against San Francisco after allowing an unearned run while walking two across two-thirds of an inning.
Webb was tasked with pitching the 11th inning and ended just one out away from closing things out, but a sac fly from Kevin Gausman that scored Brandon Crawford changed the outcome of the contest. This was the first time Webb allowed a run since May 21, though, and for the most part, he's been a reliable arm for the Braves out of the bullpen.

Braves' Jacob Webb: Earns win in relief
Webb (2-2) earned the win Thursday against the Rockies after tossing two scoreless innings, allowing one hit and striking out two without walking a batter.
The right-hander made his first appearance since being recalled earlier this week and was in complete control, tossing 18 of his 26 pitches for strikes and cruising through the middle frames after Touki Toussaint's short three-inning outing. Webb has been up and down between Triple-A and the big-league roster over the last few months, but he has not allowed an earned run in any of his last six appearances at the highest level dating back to May 21.

Braves' Jacob Webb: Recalled by Atlanta
Webb was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.
Webb was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Aug. 17, and he allowed three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six in 3.2 innings across four minor-league appearances since then. However, he'll provide an extra arm in Atlanta's bullpen since active rosters expanded Wednesday. The right-hander will serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever since he has a 4.29 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in 21 innings across 20 appearances with Atlanta in 2021.

Braves' Jacob Webb: Sent to minors
Atlanta optioned Webb to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.
Webb's demotion clears a spot on the active roster for starting pitcher Huascar Ynoa (hand), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list ahead of his scheduled outing Tuesday in Miami. During his four-day stint with the big club, Webb made two appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen, tossing a scoreless frame in both outings.
