Learning experience.   24 year old Phillips with a 94-95 fastball with movement and a good slider put in a spot that means something.   He threw the ball well.    Good night for the young O's.

After today’s game, Hyde is probably second guessing his decision to take this job. He’s In For a long, long season.

I think this is the key to understanding Hyde's maneuvers for the foreseeable future.  He's making whatever he can of this roster, along with some duct tape, spit and luck.  The point here i

Brandon Hyde certainly disdains the intentional base-on-balls strategy.

Through games of 7/1/19, number of IBB's issued:
Orioles        3
Yankees     5
Red Sox    14
Blue Jays 17
Rays         19

EX: In tonight's game, as a "1st guess", in the Rays' 6th inning,  I would have intentionally walked Garcia to load the bases and brought in Fry to face Kevin Kiermaier.

No point in IBB when you’re losing by 3+ runs at all times.

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      By OsFanSinceThe80s · Posted

      It's right there with Frank Robinson in 1966 and Cal Ripken in 1991. It's all going to depend if Gunnar can stay close to his torrid pace during the second half.

      Does Elias dare trade Hays at the deadline?

      Has been, yes. Is no longer.

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      I was just thinking about this. The Os need a righty OFer. The problem is, they really need that OFer to be able to play for CF.  Reports are that they are looking for a player just like that.  Maybe Bader (struggling big time vs lefties this season) or Pillar (destroying lefties this year but subpar in the past) or maybe someone else.  Obviously getting Robert would be the best case scenario and you likely say you take Hays in that deal (since those larger deals almost always have MLers in them and it could just help offset some salary) but I doubt that deal happens. But if you trade for that type of player, do you have roster room or even a roster need for Hays? If you trade for a righty vet OFer, what player gets squeezed?  Do they just get rid of one of the young bats and send them down?    The Os really need to deal some of the vets off of this team.

      My 2024 Midseason Report Card

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      Thanks for doing this. As soon as I realized we were at 81 games when I checked the standings I was waiting to see you post this.  Adley would see that OBP he’s sacrificed for power go up with a robo ump strike zone. He had to adapt to human error and get more aggressive.  The things that stand out to me… - Gunnar is that dude. Give him that Witt deal. - Mateo’s defense at 2B needs to be realized as possibly the best in MLB. - Santa is having a big walk year.  - Mullins and Hays have more defined roles now and both have been hitting pretty well in June.  - The offense really picked up when the weather picked up. - I expect boosts from Kjerstad and possibly Mayo in the 2nd half to offset any regression.

      I would not equate Hays and McKenna.    McKenna was never more than a 4th or 5th outfielder in the majors.   Hays a been a starter and All-Star as a left fielder that can play all 3 outfield  positions.

      Probably not because he still provides RH hitting outfield depth.  When your LF, CF, and DH are all strict LH hitters, that’s not a bad thing. Now, Ramon Urias on the other hand has less reasons not to be traded.

      This may be over-simplifying things, but in 2021 O'Hearn wOBA'd .432 when not shifted, .350 in '22, .358 in '23, and .418 so far this year. Really good all four years. With the shift in '21-22 his numbers were .243 and .249, or basically Kiko Garcia. This year and last with much less extreme shifting it's .329 and .319.
