Wednesday, June 15: Zimmerman tries to right the ship as Orioles continue series in Toronto

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Why did Hyde (and Sig) insist on pitching to Vlad Jr. instead of walking him. Let anyone else on the Blue Jays beat you. Still not as bad as Buck not using Britton in the 2016 wildcard game. 

[Just Regular]

Vlad at 114.8 or more three times tonight.   114.8 is a maxEV only a dozen MLB bats have attained this SEASON.

Is B-Ref going to keep Bautista at 6-5, 190 forever?

Looks like Hyde had plans for after the game.

He managed aggressively.  Then he does that.

Incredibly stupid to pitch to Vlad there. It's so bad that I'm questioning letting Hyde manage this team in 2023 and beyond once we have a lot of talent on the roster.

This 1000%. Elias and the GM got rid of the rebuild manager in Houston when they got good so there's hope.

Hyde wasn’t the guys that didn’t get the run in from third.  If you are the away team and don’t score in the 10th you most s Likely are gonna lose.

Toronto has some good restaurants.

Second guessing baseball moves, it’s what we do.

Glad to see I wasn’t the only one sitting here trying to figure out why we weren’t walking him… that run means nothing and gives you a chance at a double play. 

Garceau on radio said the exact same thing before Vlad stepped in.

Nothing like a bad managerial decision in Toronto leading to a walkoff loss in the bottom of the 10th.

Good times.

Hyde was asleep at the wheel.

Do the Blue Jays have some kind of magnetic beam they zap at the brains of Orioles managers to cause them to make stupid moves.

Very true but in this case it was first guessing.

At least this one doesn’t end the season.

I hate the decision but I’m not down on Hyde. He has done a solid job this year. Managed aggressive today.
