Baltimore, Maryland (AP) – After yet another poor performance on Wednesday, the struggling Baltimore Orioles designated former closer Craig Kimbrel for assignment, raising the possibility that Kimbrel’s time with the team may be coming to an end.
In two thirds of an inning of relief work, Kimbrel allowed six runs on three hits as the Baltimore Reds lost 10-0 at home to the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday. In his last 11 games this month, Kimbrel has a 13.94 ERA.
