The #Orioles have a closer crisis whether The Skipper wants to publicly admit it or not. What should they do? Which OF moves need to happen? How good was Bradish? Where is #Ravens depth? Any trade they should explore? @theboone29 @LucilleBurdge (IA HOF '24) @ryanripken join us https://t.co/RCybGHrOK7

Another game where Brandon Hyde has to go get a reliever to save Craig Kimbrel after Kimbrel struggled in the 9th. The Orioles should trade for a nasty bullpen arm .. like yesterday.
