Great to listen to Brady

Now here is a thinking man's color man. I only saw a couple innings of this game but he had many interesting things to say. He just abused the ideas of sacrifice bunting or altering your swing to try to hit behind the runner.

Uh oh, someone that actually played the game isn't in favor of sac bunting? Oh noes!

I must be old school. But that is fundamental baseball. It has been that way for well over a 100 years. And Brady was not good in the booth - imho

No but he wants guys to alter their swings to beat the shift.

Isnt listening to Bordick bad enough? And you want to hear Brady?

IMO Brady was much better than Bordick. Only caught a few innings myself, but really enjoyed his take and his interaction with Thorne.

I liked what Brady brought to the table. I just wish he were a better speaker. Very intelligent baseball stuff, and it was a nice change, but he sounds so disinterested (he's obviously not) with almost a painful delivery that reminds me of a bashful teenager talking down to his shoes and not the person he's supposed to be speaking with. Just a very poor public speaker. I second Ben McDonald as SteveA just said. He's the best guest analyst I've heard for the O's, and I'm also in favor of them bringing Brian Roberts back for more.

Brady's mic was discernibly inferior to Gary's. That didn't help.

Brady is great. Think the guy is a student of the game. Has really taken to the analytical part of it over the last few years...and understandably so. Perhaps best is I really enjoy his takes from his approach as a hitter...and for his "students". Just great all around insight.

    • But again, nothing you say here changes anything. This team is going to be built from within. They are not going to try to build any other way…and they are right about that. This doesn’t mean they don’t need to spend but again, those guys will supplement the roster. And don’t think they won’t talk about how they added guys at the deadline for 2025. That they are “like free agent signings”.
    • It was the holder, not the kicker.  Jackson may not be perfect, but he's far from the problem this year. He's got a fumbling issue that may at some point cost this team a game or two, but there is no doubt he's playing some good football right now.
    • Yeah I'm surprised that Cleveland has been this bad. They were good last season. 
    • Gunnar also signed a one year contract.
    • The when is really two questions.  One is when do the O's stop being handicapped by the risk-averse mindset that's governed their behavior since 2018, and the second is when does a 74 year-old billionaire tire of being told he has to wait a little longer because Jackson Holliday needs to further refine his new toe-tap?  Oh, and we also need to nail down a position for Coby Mayo, and so on.  No question?  I think the questions are numerous and many of them pretty important, and because they're so important, I think we'll start seeing a change in approach beginning this offseason.  I certainly hope so. Nothing I've said disputes the need for internal development or diminishes the role our current core of young players - some of whom haven't exactly made a seamless transition - will need to play for sustained success.  Nor is it a call for stupid FA spending.  It very much is an argument that time needs to be thought of differently now that two very successful regular seasons are behind the O's and the huge impediment of Angelos ownership is no longer a factor.
    • If he wants to join Hyde’s staff in some capacity, I’d be fine with that. Or are you actually talking about him being on the team as a player?
    • So why would you have sought payment if you were owner as you previously stated?  Since you are not known for being litigious and all? Also as I am sure you’re already aware the media exclusivity rights in Vegas are already shared by 6 major league teams. Which clearly was not the situation in DC as the territory was expressly the territory of the Baltimore Orioles.
