Kimbrel really shows you how valuable Bautista was in us winning 101 games last year.

[@bhouse8o8]

I miss Bautista 😭😭😭

[@treyvon4444]

Kimbrel can't save a game to save his life

[@alexkuhn1451]

I like what they did last night (may 10). Put kimbrel in the 7th and let cano close.

[@treyvon4444]

@@alexkuhn1451 Yeah dont use Kimbrel to save. They gonna get it together

[@Leaveme_alone123]

I think

[@TheSpooncer]

I took an hour long shower and I'm still less washed than kimbrel

[@Narniak69]

Kimbrel needs an extra long shower to WASH all that $$$ he got from the sportsbooks last night!!

[@markbeckens]

You and your comment stink though. You should try using soap.

[@TheSpooncer]

@@Narniak69 he should pitch batting practice for holliday to improve both their confidence 💀

[@Dr_Noose]

That was said beautifully

[@danistheguy]

lmao

[@chscelebrity8325]

We were spoiled with Bautista

[@alexkuhn1451]

This game took a few years off my life

[@zgidwitz]

Amen!

[@Narniak69]

If you bet the run line on the O's it took off about a decade.

[@artisticboundaries]

That it did!!!

[@kevingreen2245]

Some of these, my heart can't take it. Lol

[@turtledove1927]

its hard to believe that we got into a situation to be swept

[@Billyball35]

We are going to be even more deadly if Mateo keeps performing like he has been

[@scubastevevw]

Orioles fans, is it time to give up on Craig Kimbrel?

[@JacksonLane02]

Probably or at least the Orioles will figure out how to use Kimbrel and the whole closer situation til Batista is fully healed

[@yosshy4774]

I think he's already given up. You can see it in his face.

[@davidsmith-uw2ci]

We need to rest him for a few games after every close chance for the rest of the yr.

[@papigrande4378]

As far as high leverage situations are concerned, I'd be ok if he was never called on again.

[@SSMenace49]

Absolutely.

[@RavenNationIII]

how many chances are we going to give Kimbrel. . he's blown way too many saves. makes you miss that crazy year Zach Britton

[@Billyball35]

And Bautista last year. But yea britton went 47 for 47 in saves and allowed 4 runs all season

[@lukelerner2742]

Real gritty tonight. But enough is enough with Craig. I know we're tied up on the books for him and feel the need to put him out there, but Hyder needs to start evaluating.

[@jeffjohndrow8869]

Hate to blow that much money, but yeah, he’s got to go.

[@douglasstewart8474]

Absolutely!! Has to go.

[@wurzyking]

Use him as a set-up instead of closer if we cant trade him. No confidence in him in 9th or beyond.

[@mackyboy4432]

​@@wurzyking thats the thing, he only wants to close...

[@21216ravensfan]

@@wurzykingI don’t want to use him at all

[@waynewells3297]

Os are like a champion heavyweight fighter who’s left arm is tied behind his back in the last round.

[@FrederickFokker]

My heart can't handle another 100 games of this!

[@xLegendaryPete]

Kimbrel needs to take off a bit, cause he's not helping

[@michaeldipietro5010]

Another blown save, Kimbrel. I see that he is frustrated, but the bottom line is he needs to be on his A game to close it out. Whatever the issue is, he needs to find and fix it soon. I feel that the Orioles brass is giving him a short leash as each save is blown. Otherwise, a good rebound game. Bradish was on fire. Our starting rotation is looking real good. It will be even better once GRod comes back.

[@agmood]

funny thing is, Akin got the blown save lol

[@TheJiggaNasty]

I can't take it 😫 I about had a heart attack 💔 Let's go Baltimore! Props to Washington too

[@mcs-bl6sg]

I couldn't watch the actual game, but from these highlights, I'm glad, because I'd have gone bald from tearing my hair out.

[@jamesmoucheron4799]

Most stressful game I’ve been too. So much fun though at the same time

[@user-dw8xq1kl7y]

Had to hold my breath there! Glad the O's gutted it out

[@argenissanchez1778]

Kimbrel is not reliable, he cannot close the game on consecutive days

[@DanTrundle]

Would have loved to have been at this game! Bet the crowd was on fire!

[@tommy2chips]

Still have not been swept in a series

[@dylancaldwell522]

Big Tony with the bomb and the glove in this one 😤😤

[@dingerdudez8461]

Kimbrel needs to retire

[@Narniak69]

Why retire when he can make a KILLING being in on the take for the sportsbooks?

[@ViralTikTokShorts999]

Well a win is a win 🏆 in the books 📚

[@SWMullins]

Good outing for Bradish hopefully we have seen the last of Kimbrel

[@blakeweishaar7469]

No more Kimbrel, no more Melanie

[@baronvonnembles]

She is awful. I don't really care for Kevin or Ben either. Too much cutsie "Look at me" stuff.

[@andresguillen9186]

That’s my team! We didn’t play well this series but we got the win. We got to get better at bats and look for your balls.

[@biancavaunt999]

Enjoy the regular season, boys. We're not going anywhere with Kimbrel on staff.

[@timgist6227]

We will because the Team needs to make the Decision NOW To give someone else the Ball to Close out Games!! It’s Happened to Kimbrel before and it’s part of the Game. He’s lost his Role as Closer with other Teams before and he’s a Professional and can Handle it. Hyde and the Organization can’t worry about Kimbrel’s Feelings because this Team is Ready to Win Now and can’t be losing Games because of an Unreliable Closer!! Orioles: Make the Decision Now and don’t look Back!!

[@johncole273]

Let's go O's

[@dfresh834]

Can we all agree it's time to find a new closer?

[@waynewells3297]

Jacob Young walk was pivotal: Ump called ball 4 on a fastball that was mos def a strike on inside edge .

[@christinageary8576]

Let’s go O’s 🐦‍⬛💜

[@briancoyne6700]

What a game!!!!

[@mathewmackie5623]

Ooft. What a game.

[@teezwilliams22]

Dam this looked like a home game for us!! We traveling again nowdays!! Westburg was safe at home, and Gunnar might be AL MVP!! Oh, and kimbrel washed!!!

[@jdhelfrich]

I feel bad for Kimbrel, he's a HOF closer, but we can't count on him anymore. Gutsy win from the boys

[@mackan3143]

Damn close call !!!

[@johnjacobs1625]

OT o's !! Get er done!

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Awesome game. Orioles cooking.....

[@haileebrianna]

now that was tight game I gotta go to nationals stadium now

[@paulviseskis9789]

O' YAH!!

[@davidsmith-uw2ci]

Please oh please stop bringing up the no sweep streak. We heard that all year then we got swept at the worst time.

[@artisticboundaries]

Got swept when... it's been almost 2 years!?!?

[@jayswah5822]

You're a clown

[@theghosty99]

​@@artisticboundaries are you kidding? The effing playoffs

[@artisticboundaries]

@@theghosty99 That stat is for regular season!!! Playoffs is a totally different animal... And you should know that. Regular season and playoffs have two sets of stats... SO... the streak still stands!!!

[@davidsmith-uw2ci]

Yes I understand 2 separate things but Regular season or post a sweep is a sweep. Id much rather be swept in the regular season then the playoffs at the worst time unless it was the world series then that would be even worse.

[@Aneeshtherave]

At this point, kimbrel should only pitch as our closer if we have like a 10 run lead or he will find a way to screw us in the 9th inning.

[@TerryWhittingtonSr]

That's 2 darn good teams..

[@bluesky7333]

Kimbrel is terrible. 4 blown saves and two that were almost blown. He can't throw strikes. He can't stop runners from stealing. He's not dominant in any way. He is holding us back, and our manager is someone who thinks the closer is who does the 9th every night. Blew up the arm of last years guy, and has used Kimbrel in 1/2 of the games so far this season.

[@Setsotama]

This game was drunk, so glad for this day off

[@skywalker39100]

GO ⚾️'s!!!!!!

[@MessiRonaldoandaviationfan909]

The most stressful game of our season so far glad we got the win though

[@mr.smithgnrsmith7808]

Kimbrel and Cano…SMFH

[@quiveringmoist7558]

Cano was dumped by Minnesota 2 years ago for a reason last year was the fluke year for him

[@1972Ray]

Cano can't get it done without putting guys on bases. But it's not all on him we're not hitting.

[@user-dh8ei7ty6d]

Well i would say something big is happening in baltimore Something big I tell you but i got gray hairs from this game

[@Mr-xt7yn]

from japan. Kimbre fightl!! I trust you!

[@icymantella6282]

We really wanted to lose today

[@Narniak69]

Kimbrel did his best to tank, but the sportsbooks can't get to everyone.

[@thebookdoc.writing.and.editing]

We must have been watching different games.

[@itsjohnnymillion]

How am I not happy about this win? 🙄

[@stevemohl30]

Kimbrel needs to go! a 25% blown save rate is NOT the stat you want your CLOSER to have!!!

[@user-mf9bx5jc8r]

They have to take kimbrel out the closer position. He has messed us up too many times already.

[@user-rv8el8xz6r]

5 already 😭😭

[@Leaveme_alone123]

In 6th ending orioles hit home run

[@juanjo6992]

WHAT A F...G GAME! STILL NO SWEPT!

[@billfinn9536]

The closer needs about eight days rest between appearances Baseball ⚾️

[@TabbyCat041]

WoW!

[@keith3915]

Damn thought Westy was out at the plate on that play but on the slow mo replay that was really close.

[@calebhairston4858]

You’d think you’re watching a Ravens game 🫠😵‍💫

[@turtledove1927]

I was never so glad to beat Hunter Harvey in all my life. I knew McKenna was never gonna make a good throw at the plate and I was thinkin another ugly head reared. But in the end speed kills.

[@jeremystoeckel9903]

I'd be really surprised if they win as many games as last year with this bullpen/closer situation. I mean, 95 wins is still good. We shall see...

[@1031Investing]

When you have a big time producer in Santander hitting .220 and Mullins in a 5-50 slump you have to address this. ANY player hitting .100 is an issue.

[@charliekeehan339]

Felix take my ucl dude I don’t need it

[@fryncyaryorvjink2140]

I wasn't worried 😅

[@papigrande4378]

Craig Kimbrel was the first bad deal I've seen from Mike Elias. Kimbrel is terrible and should never be used in high leverage situations.

[@baronvonnembles]

No, the first would be named Jack Flaherty. But nobody is perfect. Elias is right far more than he is wrong.

[@papigrande4378]

@@baronvonnembles I think Jack Flaherty was more of a decision he was handcuffed into by ownership at the time. But you are ultimately right. There were much better pitchers available.

[@user-dt8vy2yb3d]

After yesterday's game. The Orioles didn't drink didn't get swept, yet. Next schedule series: vs Diamondbacks at Camden Yards 🧡🖤🧡🖤 this weekend!!!

[@user-dt8vy2yb3d]

Never, ever fooled Gunner Henderson when he hit an HR!!!

[@racer14glr91]

Craig Crumbril. Glad the bats didn't crumble

[@kevingreen2245]

Are there any closers we could look at? This is getting spooky with our closer situation, in my opinion.

[@NES8440]

The Nationals may have won the battle’ but they lost the war 🧡🖤⚾️

[@Ardyrezv]

Wait didn’t that Nats lose this game? Thought it was a split series. They are on a rebuild after winning a World Series. O’s need to finally win our war!

[@turtledove1927]

Somebody needs to remind Hyde that Suarez was out the game over 5 years for a reason. He gotta make that $ up one way or another

[@kevinbillingsley8256]

Come on, Hyde! Kimbrel should be that guy in the bullpen who comes in and pitches a couple innings in blowouts. Time for 'closer by committee,' Cano, Coulombe, Perez and Webb. And it's time for Elias to work a deal for some bullpen help. Right now we have a top 5 rotation, a top 5 lineup but a bottom of the league bullpen.

[@nickzendano1366]

Let’s see how serious the front office is….they need bullpen help BADLY.

[@suspicious_ape7173]

Our bull pen is just not as lights out as last year

[@tater_tot_yt]

It's Kimbrel. Everyone else is fine.

[@Corvid80]

For the love of God, no more Kimbrel please. Enough is enough.

[@glquam07]

6:51 look away Orioles' fans.

[@Ace8ai]

With Gunna with 11 hr by May 8 how many is he on pace for.

[@WalrusEatingCheese]

Idgaf how good kimbrel was. If he can’t get it together we gotta move on

[@joeypuvel1228]

Looked like Westburg was safe though?

[@papagrantits]

Kimbrel gotta go.

[@jojofreelancer1210]

Definitely cant have WS hopes wuth only Kimbrel

[@medarby3066]

Pure luck this win. Everyone better watch out. These Nats aint skerd of nobody.

[@goatcheese4me]

9:16 - are there any rules against deking the runner in the MLB? You can see the ball sails over his head but he fake tags the runner and looks at the ump in an attempt to hold him at second. Would he have been allowed to take 3rd if he didn't run? (quick research: I think it's considered obstruction Type 2 but someone correct me if i'm wrong)

[@medarby3066]

I looked it up. Its called "Smart baseball".

[@henrybutchy3242]

Yeah, don't allow defensive lineman to use fake moves either. The other day, a CF faked a catch (early), runner on 3rd left (early), and runner had to hussle back = no run. Brilliant

[@wind_runner6836]

Is the catcher allowed to plop his knee on the plate blocking it?

[@adamclabaugh1945]

Launch Kimbrel into the sun

[@CoolLatiasLatios]

I know the obvious we miss Bautista but man if man McKenna needs to not be in this team either>_

[@freemarley639]

Kimbrel was signed by previous ownership

[@user-rv8el8xz6r]

True but Angelos doesn't evaluate talent. That's all on Elias and it's ok because really it's his first bad move and McKenna being in the squad is another

[@user-rv8el8xz6r]

Mckenna is not a MLB player. I will never forget him dropping a routine fly ball to lose the game last year. Looks horrible in the field again and has a noodle arm

[@1031Investing]

Yep, I remember that dropped can of corn too. Yes, Better players in AAA.

[@tastyhasty4747]

Hard to watch these games with melanie calling them.....KIMBREL GOT TO GO

[@Ace8ai]

There is 💯 percent that there is something wrong with Kimbrels arm. He needs to be sat I have no faith in him at all. But HOW BOUT THOSE O'S!!

[@MikeydeLaraCovers]

Sooo… I suppose it’s time we had a conversation about Kimbrel. 😬🤦🏽

[@medarby3066]

Thats not how the reverse jinx works. You're supposed to be 19-31 and talk about "firing Davey Martinez." Only Then do you win the world series.

[@MikeydeLaraCovers]

@@medarby3066REALLY wish this was a reverse jinx attempt. But after this past decade, getting close, and now knowing what it’s like to not have a shut down closer…? I don’t have the fandom bandwidth to be clever in my support of the O’s. 🤣

[@jaynesemurfin5621]

Terrible slide by westburg. Either dive and go in hands first, safe, or feet first he would be safe. But feet first and try to touch with hand???

[@CollinsMobileDetailing]

is this the orioles channel or the masn channel? jeez

[@mvolatile8785]

O's need a closer! Trade Jackson for Mason Miller!!

[@averypayne3279]

I like that

[@wecandobetter9821]

I’d love to see Miller in a O’s uniform but unless some team offers the farm A’s gonna keep him. The way he pitches you certainly can’t blame them

[@williammummert645]

Kimbrel is a waste, trade him or just release him BYE BYE

[@jasper5502]

We need some good pitchers…

[@skyrushyesminderaserno1150]

Trade Kimbrel

[@jeffwarner5843]

Hyde says he has the highest confidence in Kimbrell....what a crock. He is washed up

[@1031Investing]

Agree but Hyde is being Hyde. I like how he respects his players but yea, it's time.
