Scuffling O's fire manager Hyde after slow start

The Baltimore Orioles fired manager Brandon Hyde on Saturday, hoping a new leader can spark a turnaround of the most disappointing team in Major League Baseball.

Fire Cora Hire Hyde

Hyde does more with less

I agree. But also, isn't it the staff and Cora's job to teach how to play winning baseball? TEAM baseball, not individual baseball?

The Orioles are 15-28

Trevor Story is now tied for the American League lead in strikeouts with 56.

That's pretty bad but consider he also has only 7 walks.

That's pathetic.

He sucks. Just a brutal signing from day one.

More so than actually teaching they are the ones who establish the culture

I think we need new blood in the head coaching position

I think Pete Fatse gotta go too.

At least Cora got angry at a proper time last night. I will give him that. Who goes first, Cedanne or Cora?

I think he makes a good point about players chasing personal accomplishment- let's face it that's how you get paid these days. Nobody wants to bunt or hit a sac fly because those things diminish their personal stats.

As for playing as a team that should have been taught from when they started Little League.

Even with all the analytics pod people, I think the manager still sets the culture though. Cora emphasizes three run homers and celebrations from what I can see.

I posted at the end of March that my gut tells me this season is another dud.

Still hoping I am wrong

It hasn't been good so far, but the American League is thoroughly mediocre this year. They're in range to be in the playoff hunt if they can catch a hot streak. It might require a trade, call up, or firing to give them that spark. If they dumped Cora now they could have some 1988 style Morgan Magic under Ramon Vazquez or whoever they'd give it to (Varitek?)

Giolito is a meat tossing failure.

And how did 1988 workout?

 

[quietbruinfan]

What a bunch of incompetent penny-enney failures they have in management. Lets bring in waiver wire Burdi immediately. It's the Cora way....Besides, what else we got ...?

I liked it you hated it ~ great call

Fire Cora Hire Hyde

I agree with the first half of your post.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Being honest, I didn't "hate" it. I certainly didn't love it though. It was a middling "big" contract and Chaim got it wrong.

 

[JRull86]

Good W

 

[Mione134]

They needed that. We needed that. Now BUILD on it. Duran is coming along. I told y'all to be patient.


Kids are FINALLY fed. Hallelujah. Get some 99 popcorn and chicken tenders asap!

 

[quietbruinfan]

Good win. Now management has to get off their analytical butts and do a few things.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Trade Devers though, right?

Got a text last night from a friend who had 2 extra tix in the luxury box next to John Henry’s tonight.

Needless to say……great night!

He’s kinda not wrong. Zero buzz anywhere. When I wear my Sox gear, I always get asked, “how’re they doing?”

If they were watching, they’d know.
