The Baltimore Orioles and WWII

Why is that stupid? SB gets him in scoring position. It's not like trying to steal third and we've seen Kimbrel be really bad at holding runners.

We could definitely use Felix but I think that's because the rest of the bullpen has been having so much trouble. If we are comparing closer to closer in a zero sum game between Felix or Kimbrell, I do remember Felix giving us all kinds of drama last season when runners would get on base and steal off of him due to his long wind up, or he'd lose his command and start walking batters. There's also the occasional ill-timed home run he was prone to give up sometimes. Back in the game threads we were sweating a lot of those situations with Felix on the mound. But with that said, Felix found his way to success the large majority of the time so I don't want to degrade his performances. Just a reminder that these guys are still human and they still have their own competitive struggles from time to time too.

How many 1,2,3 innings has he had?    Lotta base runners.  Nothing on hard contact but a lot traffic and a lot of stressful innings.     Hasn’t been pretty.  

Careful @Roy Firestone-- Cranky Frobby™ is on the prowl for bullhockey! 

Nope; he seems fully behind Jackson believe it or not haha.

Hopefully Jackson reads this thread so he can figure things out.  He really needs to immediately abandon what’s been successful for him.  

Yes, or the 2B ump.  Adell was safe but maybe too close to overturn.  If he calls him safe they wouldn’t overturn that either.
