If Kremer or Wells are still in the rotation, Elias isn't doing his job IMO

One of those guys is fine as a 5th starter.  No team has 5 studs in the rotation

I was replying to a post, trying to give context to TB having a 99 win season with nothing to show for it. 

But you go ahead and vent towards my post. . 

Seemed more like coping than giving context.

Fair comment.  They should be rotation options 6a and 6b.  That said, I hope they're still in the system.

How about overswinging, losing his balance and a long fly call? Good enough?

Kid just isn’t really that good

Trying to find a silver lining and all I got is “At least I didn’t bet $5000 on the orioles tonite…..

Plus we all get refunds for the remaining playoff home games.

Every dink and doink and break has fallen their way too

I’m gonna keep watching but I don’t know if I’ll be back here. I can’t stand the armchair psychologists and everyone who wants to just simply blame things on Hyde. 
 

The Orioles have been cold for weeks. They haven’t been hitting and they ran into a buzzsaw of an offense. It’s as simple as that. 

Agreed in the playoffs timing matters to a great degree and how a team is playing. We are just not playing well right now and haven’t been for a few weeks.

But this is not on Hyde. We have to get better in the offseason to beat these caliber teams when it matters most. That’s on Elias/Angelos, not Hyde.

Don't even want the division title next year. Just a wildcard.

I’ll still take division…

The offense has had a bad 3 weeks

Agreed, but the story of the postseason is that they've gotten to our starting pitching early. 

Kind of unexpected, but I think that missing John Means was more than this staff could handle against this kind of lineup.

Been saying that for a long time. He's a slightly above average hitter, which is a massive disappointment for a number 1 overall pick.

True. It’s about a mortgage payment.

Oh I do... wrapped up by around September 2.

That is just stupid...there is a reason that the whole trajectory of the team changed when he got called up.  He is one of the top 5 catchers in baseball.

These comments about Adley are pathetic and embarrassing.  I get it.  We are all upset.   Maybe some of you should take a time out?
