The O’s have won a World Series and have a nine-time All-Star in Kimbrell.

“It’s a huge advantage to go in and get a guy who has been one of the best closers in the game for the last ten or so years, a guy who has pitched in a lot of World Series games, big games,” Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said.

Currently in his eighth team, 35-year-old Kimbrell led the National League in saves four times. His career ERA is 2.40.

 

In the 2018 postseason, he recorded six saves and led the Boston Red Sox to victory.

With Felix out, he was a pretty nice fit for us, according to Kimbrel. As about him joining this squad, Orioles General Manager Mike Elias stated, “I know he’s really excited about it.” “There is a guy who has played baseball at every level. He will have a significant impact at the back of our bullpen.

Playing with the Philadelphia Phillies the previous season, Kimbrel recorded an 8–6 record with 23 saves and a 3.26 ERA.

But in the National League Championship Series, he did suffer two losses, including a botched save, in a seven-game series loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks.

The American League East title and a season with 101 wins are the recent accomplishments for the Orioles.

In the American League Division Series, they were defeated by the Texas Rangers.

On February 24, the Orioles take on the Boston Red Sox to kick up spring training. At Oriole Park at Camden Yards on March 28, they will play the Los Angeles Angels in the first game of the season.
