Or you can look at his last few outings, which are actual data you can use to predict how he will fare in the future, there's nothing wrong or illogical about wondering if there's something wrong with Kimbrel
his ERA has jumped almost two whole runs (0.49 to 2.16) since the trade, and his ERA for August is 7.15, in 12 outings
if they keep using him where he doesn't succeed then that isn't a problem that will fix itself, you can't keep banging your head against the wall by continuing to use him where he's been a monumental failure, it's fucking stupid
"he was paid to pitch whenever needed!!!!!!!!!"
yeah and what's the solution to him BEING SHIT in non save situations, let's do something different ffs
