Audacy.com MLB insider Bob Nightengale joined Dukes & Bell to talk some baseball with the guys, what he thinks of the team signing Shane Greene and what should we expect from him when he rejoins the Braves?
Nightengale talked about how big of an addition for the bullpen Greene will be.
“I’m not sure how big that will be, the only reason I give pause to that is it seems everybody that signs late that’s a pitcher struggles.” Nightengale said “Craig Kimbrel, we saw how bad he was with the Cubs when he went over there, Greg Holland was terrible with the Royals.”
“I know he’s on the fast-track, I think they plan to bring him up by the end of this week, at least weekend or play him next week. I know he’s been working out and stuff, but it’s not the same as having spring training. It’s better that he’s there than what they had before, but I just wonder how affective he will be.”
