Atlanta placed Kinley on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to right elbow inflammation. The transaction is retroactive to Monday, so Kinley could have a chance at returning to the Atlanta bullpen when first eligible June 23 if his elbow inflammation proves to be mild and he's able to resume throwing within the next few days. The right-hander has been a key part of the bridge to the ninth inning for Atlanta this season, notching four wins and 10 holds while pitching to a 3.18 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 31:10 K:BB across 28.1 frames.

Tyler Kinley: Breaking News
Collects win Friday
Kinley (4-2) picked up the win over the Nationals on Friday, striking out two in a perfect 11th inning. The right-hander fired seven of his 11 pitches for strikes to leave the phantom runner stranded, and Kinley was rewarded for his efforts when Chadwick Tromp walked it off with a single in the bottom of the 11th. Kinley has four wins and seven holds in 24 appearances this season, but his performance has regressed in May as he's posted an 8.22 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 9:2 K:BB over 7.2 innings while serving up all four of the homers he's allowed in 2026.
Collects first win of season
Kinley (1-0) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one hit and striking out two over a scoreless two-thirds of an inning in a victory over the Angels. Reynaldo Lopez got ejected with two outs in the fifth inning and Atlanta ahead 4-2 at the time, failing to qualify for the win as a result, so Kinley was credited with the decision as the next man out of the bullpen. Kinley has had a strong start to the season, posting a 0.00 ERA, 0.64 WHIP and 5:1 K:BB through 4.2 innings over five appearances, but he's still looking for his first hold as part of the bridge to the high-leverage duo of Raisel Iglesias and Robert Suarez.
