Its sad. Feel for the guy but the wheel keeps spinning. Os have to find some high lev arms. Cant dwell on it.



Agree with both sentiments. 

I feel horrible for him.  
He came out of nowhere to basically become the best closer in the game in short-order. 

Sucks he couldn't stay available. Both for him, and the team. 


Becomes a huge what if...   similar in some ways to Gregg Olson, who had 160 saves for the O's, but then was injured in '93 and never the same.  If he says healthy, he might have had huge career save totals.

Shame we really only got 2.5 years of Felix. Really only about 2 years of pure dominance Felix. That 2023 will always remain ridiculous - 3 WAR, 16.2 K/9, ERA+ of 277. Just a ridiculous weapon at the back end of the game.
