Part 4/6:
The speaker expresses frustration over the perceived lack of honest communication from the Braves regarding Kimbrel’s situation. When bringing a player like Kimbrel into the fold, there is often an unspoken understanding of what the team hopes to achieve. The speaker argues that the Braves could have alleviated some of the confusion and sentiment from fans by being more transparent about Kimbrel's roster status.
Interestingly, even though it is standard for teams to refrain from disclosing how long a player’s call-up may last—out of concern that players could manipulate circumstances to gain extra time on the major league roster—the speaker acknowledges that fans tend to feel left out of the loop.
