The second guessing Hyde thread.

So, anyone want to second guess Hyde for pulling Bradish in the fourth inning, runners on 1st and 3rd with a 5-3 lead?  I have a feeling that if it hadn’t worked out, we’d be seeing a lot of second guessing of that decision.   

For the record, I thought it was a great decision.  We needed this win badly.  
 

All 3 at bats in the 4th with Tate had a leverage index over 2, so I'd say that it was good on Hyde to recognize that it was an important situation and he probably wouldn't find a higher level spot for his best relievers later in the game.

Yep. The win is more important than feelings right now.

Great game a ridiculously quick postgame interview with him…. MASN rushed it off the screen. 

Yeah for once I wanted to hear the PC and they cut away from it real quick.  Guess they wanted the studio host headed home since it was a late night.

How does everyone feel about Hyde leaving Bautista in there for the 9th with a four run lead? I hope he is still available tonight if it's close. He tied his high with six outs and threw 25 pitches (high of 27). He did pitch back to back on 5/23 after throwing 24 pitches in a 1 inning appearance on 5/22. I'm guessing he will be available today in which case I am on board but I think I would have preferred Krehbiel come in that spot.

No problem. Take no chances.  As it was the tying run was on deck.  You take him out, put someone else in to deal with the top of the lineup?  Things could get scarey real fast with no safety net.

It was 100% the right move.

Hyde did a marvelous job last night.  Bautista will still have at least one good inning in him tonight, but how about this - get a big enough lead that he's not needed.

Notice how much scoring was created last night from BBs and HBP? Patience at the plate and a good version of Dean Kremer could make Hyde look like a genius again tonight.

Consequence may only be that Felix can't go more than one inning tonight, but there's an off-day tomorrow and so he should be ready to go Friday vs. the Nats. Likewise, Tate and Perez should be able to go a fraction to a whole inning and can recuperate tomorrow.

Hopefully we won't be in a situation tonight where Krehbiel, Baker et al are pitching in the highest-leverage spots.

I just hope we actually have a lead to protect.

    • I agree with that and he's only two years out of high school. If Holliday gets back to his pre-call up stat line as you mentioned then he deserves serious consideration to be back on the Orioles roster. For now Mayo and Norby are deserving of being called up if the Orioles want to bring up a player from Norfolk.
    • I just want to riff on the term “elite athlete.”   To me, different people have different ideas of what level of quality is “elite,” and what it means to be an “athlete.”    For some people, “elite” means top 10% of the whole populace, for others it means top 0.1% of people who play professional sports.   Some people consider you “athletic” if you are very well coordinated and have good ability to learn skills, others don’t consider you “athletic” unless you could hold your own in the Olympic decathlon.   So a lot of times, people arguing about whether someone is an “elite athlete” are really talking past each other because they don’t ageee on what the term means.   To me, most pro sports players are elite athletes, and it’s just a matter of how elite they are.   In the case of Holliday, he’s athletic enough to be an awesome baseball player, and that’s elite enough for me.    
    • Locked on Orioles podcast reviews 6 rental relievers (contract for only this year) who the O's could trade for. 6.  John Brebbia, White Sox 5.  Adam Ottavino, Mets 4.  Carlos Estevez, Angels 3.  Paul Sewald, D Backs 2.  Yimi Garcia, Blue Jays 1.  David Robertson, Rangers Listed in the order they appear in the video, which is also the host's view of their value--increasing to Robertson at the top.

    • Want to sweep this series. But 2/3 isn't the end of the world.
    • Right. It’s a screwup on their part. 
    • The last column is IRS, which means “inherited runners scored”  Inherited runners would be IR and I am surprised that I didn’t see it anywhere in that column. This particular site has a different set of initials, IRS means inherited runners scored. I don’t think that can possibly be correct, because that would be a huge number.
