After a 3 for 3 day featuring a couple of doubles, Hays is now slashing .370/.433/.667.    If he stays healthy, he could be a beast this year.  

Ugh.....  Had a busy day and completely forgot about game tonight. Was going to listen on app. 

He is my favorite current player as well. Love his athleticism.  Hope he stays healthy and puts it all together.

Yay, for once the term "slashing" has real meaning.

Froberto Duran, reading too much into spring training stats?

No, MoussePie, just trying to get myself psyched up about Hays.   He had had good spring trainings before, so I know that doesn’t mean much.   But I still enjoy it when things go well.

When he's healthy he's performed, so his ST numbers aren't that surprising. I don't think you have to be too too cautious with your optimism. He looks like a good player.

I'm excited about his ST performance but can't shake the feeling that another injury is right around the corner. I hope he proves me wrong and shakes the injury-prone label this year.

Cant worry about injury.  I love how he plays and of course it carries risks. Hopefully he can corral that energy to get the most out of it safely.

Love this guy.   He’s a really fiery player who so obviously loves playing baseball.    Was watching his homer on the highlights and he was just grinning ear to ear as he crossed home plate.    I really like his skill set, but beyond that he’s just fun to watch.    I’m really hoping he can stay healthy and show us what he’s capable of.   

THIS!!!! Love Hays, love his passion and love for the game.

I always thought Hays had All Star potential.  If he can just stay healthy, he can be a cornerstone of the rebuild.

Double, triple, homer, threw out two runners at the plate.   Not a bad day.  

.409 BA and 1.197 OPS this spring.

He's no Felix Pie.

They took him out of the game in the 7th inning, so he didn’t get his last shot at the cycle.   

His one out came in the same inning he led off with a triple.

As it turns out, since the Orioles didn't have to bat in the bottom of the 9th, he wouldn't have gotten another plate appearance to try for the cycle.  His replacement was on deck when the last out of the bottom of the 8th was recorded.
