Shifting to bullpen role Webb will pitch out of the bullpen going forward, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Webb made two starts to begin the regular season and posted a 5.23 ERA and 1.94 WHIP in 10.1 innings.

Shaky in first start Webb (0-1) took the loss against Seattle on Saturday, hurling 5.1 innings and allowing three runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out five.

Impact Webb looked dominant in Cactus League play, allowing only one run and posting a 22:2 K:BB across 17 innings.

Webb will look to rebound in his next start, currently slated to take place Saturday at home against Colorado.
