I guess he's the one responsible for the bullpen ERA higher than the O's.

Even their guys with the 4 ERAs have some great stuff. Ruiz was the first guy that I have seen them bring in that I wasn't overly impressed with the stuff.

I said he's not a very good pitcher and not a leverage reliever, I stand by that. He showed it again last night in a leverage situation.

The comment I responded to was that he has been worse than Baker since Baker joined the team. He has been absolutely fine. Last night he gave up a walk and a bloop base hit, that's it.

Just idiotic move by Hyde. No reason for this 

[Philip]

Ok, remind me again why we bring in Kimbeel when we didn’t need to?

[dystopia]

Kimbrel was warmed up that's why he's in. Hyde didn't want to have to warm up another reliever.

I don't know.   We need to secure this win.  A blown save would be devastating.   Let's take a win if we have one.

Oh jeez. It’s possible Cano has a health issue?!?

[Billy F-Face3]

I wonder why Brandon Marsh chooses the caveman look.

[Chavez Ravine]

I cringe every time Kimbrel comes in—waiting for the loss of command, baserunners gone wild, and the eventual fat picth crushed—I rather him in now.

He was already warmed up and a quasi-save situation.

I guess Baker's the new high-leverage guy and Kimbrel's just a mop-up guy.

Somebody forgot to tell the Orioles they are on their way to being swept.   Heading to 8 games out by the end of the week, etc, etc.

Kimbrel wants to show Philly they shouldn't have given up on him.

[CynBeth]

Way to go Kimbrel! What a win!

[86this]

Let's do this to them again tomorrow!
