8/16 - Red Sox vs. Orioles

[baltfan]

We will score a couple of more runs and lose by 4. Sad performance by the Orioles and the Sox just haven’t been missing many pitches.

Games tied if not for that bum Kimbrel

The Kimbrel experience reminds me of 2012 when we kept around Kevin Gregg for absolutely no reason.

I don't feel like we can be too tough on him because he's performing well overall, but this game is on Burnes. He just got legitimately demolished out there, really bad. The offense gets a pass on this loss.

Down by three with one out in the 8th? Seems like the time for Cowser to get a hit.

Who are these guys from AAA that you think can get it done up here. The lack of pitching depth in the high minors is a big problem for this club 

Some Vinny Nittoli like reclamation project would be preferable to what Kimbrel is giving us.

That "bum" was bad, but he only gave up 3 runs. Our "star" pitcher gave up eight.

He can't pitch too much.
He can't pitch with too much rest.
He can't hold runners.
He can't throws strikes.

Maybe he just can't pitch anymore?
 

Just get him out there on 3 days or less for a couple of outings.  Hyde since the break has pitched him on a ton of rest every time.

Man on 3rd less than 2 outs. You know what comes next

[Moshagge3]

Runners at the corners with one out. Where have I seen this?

[iiiput]

Should never lose a game scoring 8.

3 in 1 is worse then 8 in 4

He had his Hall Of Fame career, now he is washed up, as long as teams keep giving him 13mil he ain't retiring. Kimbrel was another Elias mistake along with Rogers.

I'll be surprised if Kimbrel isn't back next season for a discount.  Elias will think he got a deal.

[baltfan]

It’s over Kevin. This is just a tease.
