Elias…DFA Kimbrel now!! (9/18: Kimbrel DFA'd, Baker recalled)
IPlayGM replied to Wavetrapper's topic in Orioles Talk
Actually, Kimbrel has had a few of those runs this year. Their comparable is that right now you can’t trust either of them in a playoff game. Maybe that changes with Soto as we move forward. -
Not sure how many people are watching these on the Os YouTube channel but I think they are really well done. I have enjoyed them. Also gave me a slight sense of hope that this team may still rebound in September and October and be a legit contender. The guys interviewed are at least saying the right things.
-
Yeah it was pointed out back in the spring that the lack of optionable guys was going to be a tough thing to maneuver. That, and lack of talent.
-
I also pose this because no other rookie is throwing up staggering numbers. I don’t necessarily believe it’s possible, just interested in thoughts.
-
This went from a fairly hopeful thing preseason to zero chance to now who knows. 1. Do you think it is possible? 2. If so, what stats would he have to put up?
-
If he keeps hitting, the umps will come around quickly.
-
I think the best iteration of our lineup has him leading off, just not sure if he will make it there this year or not. I certainly would not make a change right now, but if he continues at this pace you will want to get him as many ABs as possible.

Check the lineup in an hour…
-
I feel like Tanner Scott would fit so well in our bullpen. Can close to take pressure off of Kimbrel, plus he pairs well with Dominguez as a LH/RH flamethrower. On top of that he slides Cano back to a more comfortable role.
-
I agree. It would be awesome if he took off a little bit, showing he has made some adjustments and can handle being pitched certain ways moving forward. We were at our best as a lineup when he and Westy were going well.
-
A Cowser beginning of year hot streak would be good medicine for our lineup right now.
-
Makes sense though. He’s a SS programmed to get all he can. Hard to turn that off.
-
Whenever Skubals name is brought up in a trade with Os, it will be for one of the big 3….if not there will not be a deal.
-
To this point, we are in a position now to do this with the quality of the roster. Just need a couple guys to step up at a time and it will be a productive group.
