Yeah, well, he's been saying that since ST.  It's not going to improve with the cast of clowns we have.

Pretty sure he said it in previous seasons as well.

Back to back homers

You love to see it.

Zimmermann isn't all that great but this Richards guy sucks donkey nuts.

This is, I think, the third time I've said this in the young season. When these guys don't play sound fundamental baseball or play lazy baseball, isn't that on Hyde? If not, on whom? And if it's on Hyde, what is done to hold him accountable?

Not having talent is one thing. Not knowing or caring how to play the game properly is another.

It's on Mike "Total Control" Elias.

It's his roster, his manager, his coaches.

Sad thing is I'm not really expecting better with the roster we have.

On some levels I agree but that can’t happen in MLB. That was mental.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.

I think Hyde knows the game well.  We've just got a group of guys who aren't great.

In fairness to them, they probably haven't seen that situation since the third day of ST.  You can probably catch any team looking stupid on the right day.

For the O's that's days ending in Y.

We aren't going to see any meaningful consequences.

That was mental though. Unless Rio is better than I imagine I knew Sanchez being gone would hurt. 
 

Ryan needs to improve, I know that is an understatement

Sure. But I can still complain.

I would hope Hyde addresses it  

He did talk about Ryan working hard with Sanders on his defense. And yes, I know talk is talk. I don’t think Hyde is a BS type  I’ll say that

Crisp inning.

Mantle hit .071 off Palmer in 15 plate appearances.

What the hell is that? I was listening on the radio and all of a sudden it went from, “they’ve got him caught in a rundown” to “and a run scores because of a misplayed run down”

I don’t think I can blame this one on Sisco, So who screwed up?

Rio's inexperience at 2B
