Lmao orioles fans went nuts on me when I said he was awful when they paid him 15 million.

It’s sad that only Braves fans will have positive memories of him.

They were warned but didn’t listen. Only path forward for Kimbrel is returning to Atlanta to recapture that AA former Braves magic

36 years old. Played for 8 teams.
Who’s next?

He’ll get a chance next spring, but this might be it. The end comes fast for relievers, because they don’t have a lot of room to fall before they’re unplayable.

O’s are going to suddenly fix all their issues now, I’ll put money on it.

I’m glad we traded him during his « resurgence ».
Spadestep
I can’t believe they actually did it. Hopefully this shows they’re willing to own up to a few mistakes. Either way, wish we would’ve dropped kimbreL before Irvin

It was Elias’ dumbest move signing him in the first place

Not great for his hall of fame chances…

Closers. Volatile AF.

How does this affect his hall of fame chances? Not making it!

Should’ve been this and not Irvin a few days ago.

His first half vs second half splits are insane

He’s not catching Jansen

Kimbrel was a key part of our success in the first half, even with a few hiccups. Second half he fell off a cliff. I have never seen a worse pitcher get consistent chances other than Ubaldo Jimenez. Good riddance

Do you guys think he’ll be on the postseason roster still /s
The highs and lows for Kimbrel the past like 6 years are so crazy
I think… I think there will be a party here…
Giving up 6 ER to the 2024 Giants is definitely deserving of a DFA.
can he start?
lol
lmao even
I’m impressed he lasted this long
i was like i know he hasn’t been as good but no way he’s that bad and then i check baseball reference [and it really is that bad yikes](https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/k/kimbrcr01.shtml)
White Sox legend
