Political talk = how much should you pay in taxes, should we spend more money on schools or potholes Political talk is not, should all people be treated equally, that's basic human rights

      Brandon Hyde 2024

      By Cheetos · Posted

      I’m disappointed and found myself questioning Hyde the past few days.  But being pissed that we got swept by the 86 win Royals a year after watching the Rangers do what they did, and witnessing the Tigers sweep the Astros dilutes any argument to the point of irrationality. In addition, acting like the O’s were the only team that kicked a$$ the first half the season and fell off post all star break is short sighted.  Five teams were on pace to win 99-103 games on July 1.  No one reached that mark.  The cream of the crop all had their fair share of struggles. Dismissing or brushing off our rash of injuries as not having a strong impact on this team’s performance is just asinine.     Saying this team wasn’t trying or lacked fire is an insult.  Losing isn’t fun, but to confuse a team struggling with an apathetic spirit is a ridiculous take. Someone noted the other day (SG?) that the league collectively found the hole in the O’s swing the second half, and we didn’t have the hitters to adjust is the closest rationale reasoning for our struggles.  That you can blame Elias, Hyde and his staff.  They have this offseason to make changes but let’s also not ignore that the 2023 team was made up of many of these same players and excelled in the areas they face-planted the second half of 2024 when the offense became one dimensional.  Posting over and over and over about the Rogers trade is tiring.  It turned out to be disappointing, but I highly doubt it cost us to win or lose one more game because of that trade.   Acting like Ron Washington or another older crusty manager is the answer is laughable.  I loved Buck, but he is the last of his type. I remember Britton going to the Yanks and applauding their analytics.  Other players are coming to the O’s and are raving about ours now.  Other teams are modeling their player development after us.  Some fans crap all over it, but having been a fan during the analytical dark ages, I’m super proud of where this organization is now and feel we are in a position for years to come.  Others would rather just piss and moan and fondly reminisce in a time when in reality, the O’s player development was the laughingstock throughout the league. Screaming Hyde should be fired, posting that we were better off with Angelos as the owner, calling Elias as arrogant… ugh.  Maybe we should bring back Syd Thrift from the grave and check on what Sam Perlozzo is up to now a days just to give some a perspective of what extreme disappointment truly feels like.

      Injuries have sucked, the pen has been an issue but is Adley the biggest problem?

      So clearly not in shape or banged up in various ways that he doesn't want to specify.  Get in shape and figure it the hell out.

      The story of the year: RISP performance

      By cnmilton · Posted

      This team needs to learn how to get on base. Homer's are nice, but some times hitting the single the opposite way is even nicer.  Watching the games all season, it appeared that pretty much the entire team was looking to hit the 5 run Homer, swinging out of their shoes every at bat
