Baltimore Orioles closer Félix Bautista exited Friday's victory over the Rockies with arm discomfort, raising concerns about a potential arm-related injury. Manager Brandon Hyde confirmed that Bautista will be further evaluated. Losing Bautista for any length of time would be a significant blow to the team, as he has been a key contributor with impressive stats this season. The Orioles will determine whether a replacement is needed or if Bautista's injury allows for a delay in making a roster move.
