Kerr Heads to Minor League Affiliate After Struggling in MLB
The Atlanta Braves have optioned left-handed pitcher Ray Kerr to their Triple-A affiliate, the Gwinnett Stripers. The move was announced on December 15, 2023, and comes after Kerr struggled in his limited major league appearances.
Kerr, 29, has a 5.06 ERA in just 32 innings of major league experience. He has allowed 20 hits, 18 walks, and 10 home runs while striking out 24 batters. The 6-foot-3, 185-pound pitcher has been used primarily as a relief pitcher.
Kerr's option to the minor leagues is not a surprise, as he has not been able to establish himself as a consistent performer in the majors. He will have the opportunity to work on his mechanics and regain his confidence in the minors.
