Why did Davis go after Hyde? He was not happy.

He wouldn’t have emotional ties to the player. I don’t think it was just because they were veterans more of they helped me in the past.

 If he started today he would have no emotional ties to Trumbo and Davis so he would not play them.  It wasnt because they were veterans that he played them.  I am not sure what your reply is for.  

You said it twice in two different posts.

I’m starting to think Drungo was right to repeat your penchant for being argumentative. It bears repeating.

I think it sealed Davis' fate with this team. And that is of interest. 

Lol...It should be a blip on the radar really.  It may in fact be used against him, but IF it is what actually seals Davis' fate with this leadership group, well, God help us!!!

.302 / .382 / .420 / .801 / OPS+: 116

Humble and forgiving.

And when Kim struggled in 2017, Buck wasted no time to get rid of a player who wasn't one of his guys. Not that Kim was a transcendent player, but I would have liked to have seen him get more of a chance. Especially with the juiced baseballs in 2019.

Yeah I tried to clarify because he seemed to be confused with my post.  I don't really understand it.  Seems everyone just wants to argue with me for no reason.  Drungo is actually the one who posts just to argumentative.

Kim had a monster year in Korea in 2018: 362/415/589, however he struggled in 2019 317/383/453.

Looking up the stats Kim has the highest OPS of any player on the LG Twins this year.  He isn't having a monster year, but he is still the best hitter on a team that is 72-56 and currently in 4th place.

Yeah, that’s rough.

    • They also haven’t announced the times, yet.
    • Well, I don't like to predict things on message boards but my prediction is we will not acquire two pitchers with a better Zips projection than Kremer. I would be more surprised by two than I would be by zero.
    • You can’t ignore how he pitched against Detroit and the makeup of their roster. He has more value than even Suarez if that is who we end up playing.
    • So it is different from last year? Last year the games were something like 3:00, 4:30, 7:00, and 8:30.   Have they said it will be different this year???
    • Me too. Driving 4 hours to have a father daughter date. Can't wait!
    • The discussion about Cle vs NYY is interesting. The Os always struggle at Cle and their BP is awesome but the starters are meh and so is the offense. I prefer to play NY. Worse pen, doesn’t run as much.  Not a bunch of contact hitters.  
    • Bautista, if he is back to his old self, would be a big addition. Dominguez and Soto have to improve the walk rate. They certainly have swing and miss, but at a significant cost. Cano can throw up in the zone and get misses, but he is used so often he is rarely sharp. He is used to induce ground balls, and the sinker is fairly effective when he is tired.  Akin, Webb and Coulombe are getting some swing and miss. They are all above average in swinging strike percentage, according to FanGraphs. MLB average is generally around 11.2% from year to year, and Akin (second on the Orioles behind Grayson 13.6) is at 13.2, Dominguez 12.4, Cano 12.2, Soto 12.9, Webb 11.8, Coulombe is 9.9 and Cionel 9.5. In fairness to Coulombe (11.8) and Webb (13.7), they are higher over the last three years. They have not been healthy for a fair amount of this season and pitched through some things that made those numbers dip, perhaps.  Bautista was 18% in the same period of 2022-2024. He would be 11th in MLB in 2024. No other Oriole is in the top 100 in MLB. Grayson Rodriguez is at #120. It should be noted that Andrew Walters is at 18.8, ranking 7th. He was our unsigned 18th round pick in 2022. All of that aside, I am not sure the pen is structured the same as in recent years. There may be some moves there. Or, perhaps it is like you wrote, and they focus on Soto and Dominguez making adjustments to having more command, decreasing the walks. Those two are getting a little expensive as well. I guess we’ll see.
