In 2015, the Braves invited Feigl to spring training, where he competed for a spot on the opening day roster.

[7] Eleven days later, Feigl underwent Tommy John surgery, performed by James Andrews, [8] causing him to miss all of the 2015 season.

[13] Feigl did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic. [14] Feigl did not appear for a Padres affiliate in 2021 due to injury [15] and elected free agency on November 7, 2021, without having appeared in a game for the Padres organization. [16]
