Webb was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Webb had been in the minors since May 22, and he tossed three scoreless innings across three relief appearances with Triple-A Gwinnett. He'll now return to the major-league bullpen after left-hander Grant Dayton (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day IL.

The Braves optioned Webb to Triple-A Gwinnett after Friday's blowout win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Webb was clearly rattled after drilling Kevin Pillar in the face Monday and has been unable to settle down, allowing five hits and a walk in 1.1 innings since. The righty has been inconsistent all season out of the bullpen and now yields his roster spot to Bryse Wilson.

Webb (1-2) allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits while recording just one out in the tenth inning Thursday, taking the loss to the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Webb allowed three singles before recording his only out in the tenth inning, surrendering the lead to the Pirates. The 27-year-old doesn't receive many high-leverage innings for Atlanta, however, he got the chance Thursday and couldn't come through. He carries a 6.00 ERA and a team-high 1.80 WHIP, struggling to stay consistent between appearances.

Webb (1-1) won Saturday's 8-7 game over Philadelphia, allowing three runs (one earned) on two hits.
EDGE Analysis
Webb came on in the twelfth and allowed three runs to cross the plate, thanks in part to his own throwing error, yet still won the game due to the Atlanta comeback. An inflated 6.55 ERA proves he isn't typically utilized in high-leverage situations.

Webb (0-1) was charged with the loss in Monday's game against the Marlins after surrendering two runs (one earned) on three hits in the 10th inning.
EDGE Analysis
It did not take long for Webb to see some action after he was called up to the active roster Saturday. Unfortunately, Webb's first outing of 2021 was not great. The first three batters he faced notched hits against him, allowing the go-ahead runs to score. While he was able to retire the next three batters and limit the damage, he was still left with the loss. The 27-year-old has previously shown some ability to be a bullpen contributor, compiling a 1.06 ERA and 38:17 K:BB across 42.1 innings for Atlanta in 2019 and 2020.

Webb was recalled by Atlanta on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Webb was called up Wednesday to serve as the 27th man for the doubleheader against the Nationals, and he'll remain in the major-league bullpen after Chris Martin (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday. Webb made eight relief appearances for Atlanta last year and tossed 10 scoreless innings while striking out 10.

Atlanta recalled Webb from its taxi squad ahead of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
He'll be designated as the 27th man for the twin bill, meaning he'll likely be removed from the active roster following the pair of games. Though Webb failed to win a spot on Atlanta's Opening Day roster, he's been effective through parts of two seasons in the big leagues, posting a 1.06 ERA across 42.1 career innings.

Atlanta optioned Webb to its alternate training site Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Webb's case for a spot in Atlanta's Opening Day bullpen appeared to be strong after he worked 10 scoreless innings over his eight appearances in 2020, but the fact that he has minor-league options remaining likely worked against him. Atlanta is evaluating non-roster invitees Carl Edwards and Nate Jones for spots in the bullpen, while two other relief candidates in Luke Jackson and Grant Dayton already possess 40-man roster spots but no longer have minor-league options.

The Braves reinstated Webb (shoulder) from the 45-day injured list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After completing his rehab for the strained right shoulder he suffered late in summer camp, Webb is finally ready to make his 2020 debut. The 27-year-old was a key cog in the late innings for Atlanta as a rookie last season, posting a 1.39 ERA while collecting two saves and nine holds across 36 appearances. Since he missed the first month and a half of the season, Webb could work mostly in lower-leverage situations initially as the Braves look to ease him back into the bullpen mix.

Webb was placed on the 45-day injured list with a right shoulder strain Tuesday, 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.
EDGE Analysis
Webb could have played a role in Atlanta's bullpen this season, as he produced a strong 1.39 ERA in his 32.1-inning debut last year, but he'll now be sidelined for at least the majority of the campaign. It's not clear when he's expected to return, but he won't be eligible to do so until early September.
