Maybe Brunham overthrows the Admiral, then installs Saru as the new Admiral, so he only makes guest appearances.

Doug Jones has made a career of being one of the really good actors under makeup. I think it feels like more of, we need to sum up his story so he's no longer Captain so we can shoe horn Michael into the captains chair. I expect he's done, we might get an episode with him as a guest star, but it feels like he's done.

Lets be honest though, they completely wrecked him as a Captain or even a respected character in this show. Its too bad because he's an exceptional actor and did a great job in that last episode. Meanwhile Green is and continues to be just an terrible actress.
