Waldrep Optioned to Triple-A as Kinley Returns from Paternity List
Atlanta made a roster swap on July 10, sending Hurston Waldrep down while activating Tyler Kinley, who had been on the paternity list.
The Atlanta Braves officially optioned RHP Hurston Waldrep to Triple-A Gwinnett on July 10, 2026. Simultaneously, RHP Tyler Kinley was reinstated from the paternity list to fill the roster spot. Waldrep had been working back from an elbow cleanup procedure and made only a limited number of minor league rehab outings before his most recent promotion. His demotion suggests the Braves are managing his workload and recovery carefully.
