Jacob Webb turned into a pumpkin in the ALDS but showed unexpected value this season

Over the next several weeks, members of the Camden Chat staff will be reviewing one 2023 Orioles player each day to see how the season went for each of them.

For righty reliever Jacob Webb, and for the Baltimore Orioles as a whole, it was a bad ending to a great season. A middle-innings fixture down the stretch for a bullpen considered one of the best in the game, Webb got put into two ALDS games against the Texas Rangers… and laid an egg in both. In Game 1, with the O’s down just a run, he allowed a home run to rookie Josh Jung that ended up being the winning run.
