Kyle Muller News
The Atlanta Braves optioned left-hander Kyle Muller to Triple-A Gwinnett following his start against the Washington Nationals on Tuesday, in which he gave up two runs on six hits while walking one and striking out four in 4 2/3 innings. In corresponding moves, the team selected right-hander Silvino Bracho's contract from the minors and placed right-hander Huascar Ynoa (elbow) on the 60-day injured list. Muller has made only three starts for the Braves in 2022, allowing 11 earned runs on 13 hits (two homers) while walking eight and striking out 12 in 12 1/3 innings against the Texas Rangers, Miami Marlins and Nationals. He's allowed four earned runs in his last two starts over 9 2/3 frames.
The Atlanta Braves recalled left-hander Kyle Muller from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday and optioned right-hander Alan Rangel to Gwinnett in a corresponding move. Muller will make the start on Tuesday against the Washington Nationals. The 24-year-old southpaw will be making only his third start of the year for Atlanta and only his 12th major-league appearance in the last two seasons. In his two previous starts this year, he allowed nine earned runs on seven hits (one homer) while walking seven and striking out eight in 7 2/3 innings against the Texas Rangers and Miami Marlins. Muller does have strikeout upside, with 159 K's in 134 2/3 innings in the minors in 2022, but he'll be a risky fantasy streamer, even against the Nats.
Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kyle Muller will take the mound for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Miami Marlins. Right-hander Ian Anderson will serve as the 27th man, so possibly Muller sticks around longer than one start. The 24-year-old holds a 3.27 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 122/27 K/BB ratio over 99 innings in Triple-A this season. He struggled during his lone outing for the Braves this season, but does have streaming value here. Fantasy managers should have Muller on their radar in case he does stay up with the big league team.

Left-hander Kyle Muller finds himself in the Oakland Athletics organization in 2023 after spending his first two major-league seasons with the Atlanta Braves, the team that selected him in the second round in 2016. He was part of the three-team trade last December that sent catcher Sean Murphy to Atlanta. Muller was one of the Braves' top pitching prospects. He made his MLB debut in 2021 and has a 5.14 ERA (4.05 FIP), 1.37 WHIP and 22.9 percent strikeout rate in his first 49 big-league innings in 12 outings (11 starts). The 6-foot-7 southpaw has plenty of upside to become a full-time MLB starter, and he now has a much better path to a full-time role with the A's. In Triple-A in 2022, Muller improved his strikeout rate and dropped his walk rate while being dominant at times. There are certainly questions about the 25-year-old's control, but he'll be a fine target in deep-mixed and AL-only leagues.
