Let Baker pitch the rest of the game or until this arm falls off.

It’s the 6th inning of a 4-2 game. When else are you pitching Baker?

6th inning of a game decided by 6-8 runs either side.

[O's84]

Rogers and Soto not helping the team at all.  For a team that had clear weakness at SP and RP, these were moves that weren't going to help this year. 

[OriolesMagic83]

Hyde:  I need to bring in a reliever to shut the National down in the 6th w/ a runner on, down 4-2, w/ a runner.  (This is an obvious high leverage situation because if the reliever fails the game is lost)

Hyde: !  I'll bring in Baker. 

[Rbiggs2525]

We had a day off and rested bullpen.

[O's84]

That bunt my Mullins earlier looks even dumber now.

We got worse IMO.

The O’s are not a playoff team.

[LGOrioles]

What an embarrassment. Maybe they’ll get tired of watching mediocre teams out hit, out pitch, out field, and out run them at some point?

So who are you pitching?

[LookitsPuck]

Please just cut Baker. This guy can’t be good longer than a few weeks and is a dumpster fire all the other times.

Having Baker follow Rogers is like getting your results from the clinic that you have multiple stds after you’ve been told the same morning that you need crowns for half your teeth.

I would argue Soto and Kimbrel are up there.  

Kimbrel at least has his good streaks and his bad streaks.  You just have to take advantage of the good streaks.

Everyone knows they are going to get their ass kicked tomorrow night too. It’s going to get really bad this weekend and probably the next 2 weeks too. Doubt we will be talking about playoffs much by Labor Day.

That was not a high leverage situation. Not even close to one.
