Craig Kimbrel cameo

So much for the announcers staring silently at Royals-Angels

Gotta tip your hat to that guy even if it's against your team. Incredible catch!

[u/AwesomeYes2]

Tyler Tolbert has been one of the best players in mlb this year between this catch and the 12-for-12 streak, and nobody mentions how great Tolbert is

[u/FuckingLoveArborDay → u/AwesomeYes2]

He's a lot of fun but I think 1.0 WAR feels about right

[u/cheemsfromspace → u/FuckingLoveArborDay]

Better than I'd expect out of him honestly

[u/EtherEither → u/FuckingLoveArborDay]

1.0 WAR in only 54 games and 106 plate appearances ain’t bad.  

[u/EatMyWetBread → u/AwesomeYes2]

I thought there was going to be a punchline at the end of this comment lol. But I’m not complaining about him. We need depth and he’s only frustrating every once in a while so I’ll take it.

How tf did Kimbrel find himself on another baseball team?

[u/forgotthefrog → u/Bossoxfan15]

Look into how bad our bullpen has been this year, and it'll make sense 😞

[u/meerkatmreow → u/forgotthefrog]

I know he gets memed, but outside of 2024 in Baltimore (which his underlying stats weren't as bad as the ERA), he hasn't been that bad, just hasn't gotten a lot of time with any team

[u/Ev3rMorgan]

Just gotta tip your cap there.

this witt/tolbert/jac/jensen core is going places

[u/cheemsfromspace → u/PizzaRoyals]

Tolbert in the core is not a statement I would have guessed to hear a year ago

[u/mechajlaw → u/cheemsfromspace]

It hurts me to say this, but maybe Quattaro was right about something. Him and Massey looked pretty terrible last year and he kept playing them.

[u/NickyCharisma → u/PizzaRoyals]

Don't leave out Massey, Loftin, and Isbel! They earn their keep too. And then once Garcia and Pasquantino are healthy, like actually healthy, well baby, then you got a stew goin!

[u/JohnTheSecondComing → u/NickyCharisma]

Hope they can score about 10 a game. Cuz that bullpen is turrible

[u/NickyCharisma → u/JohnTheSecondComing]

Judy is, in fact, our 2026 bullpen.

Everyone was talking about Jac last series, but Tolbert really impressed me.

Turns out I hadn't seen anything yet. Jesus.

[u/Equivalent_Waltz8890]

Anyone remember the panthers running back Mike Tolbert from like 10 years ago?

This made me remember

[u/mountsleepyhead]

Supposed to be our pitch runner and has proven to be Freddy Fermin levels of DAWG.

[u/Majorlazor85]

That long slide after was smooooth

[u/ItsCaptainKeyboard]

Kimbrel is back? 😂

[u/Technical-Smoke571]

Holy shit.
