But Soto can throw 99 mph, you see?

That the other team can hit 110 mph.  Sometimes I think Hyde has no feel for the game.

[LookitsPuck]

Surely somebody in the media will ask Hyde why he took Eflin out. Surely.

[Rbiggs2525]

Too much matchup BS. What did Burch Smith do to Hyde?  Just give him the ball righty or lefty.

[allquixotic]

The only player we’ve traded for mid season who turned out well this year is Eflin. The rest have been nothing but AA nobodies with negative WAR.

You gotta battle test these guys at some point. 

Battle test them in a game we are losing until they look right.

Ugh.  Soto is terrible and it sucks because the talent is there.  

They gotta fix him before the playoffs.  If they can.

They can fix him when the O’s are losing not by making the O’s lose.

Eloy, Slater, Eflin, Dominguez have all been solid.

Hyde's moves often make no sense.

Hyun-Soo Kim is positive WAR for the O's.

Thank you, Burch. 

[Moose Milligan]

Yeah, Burch!

[Roy Firestone]

Boy we needed that!!! I want Soto and Kimbrel ONLY in garbage time..

[O's84]

Burch Smith saves Soto's bacon.

I’ve been walking and periodically checking the game and I just see that Soto was brought in. Now a lot of people don’t like the fact that I don’t like hide and they don’t like the reasons I give even though the reasons I give are excellent reasons.
However, because I’m not paying attention to the game because I’m walking, I don’t know whether bringing in Soto was a good idea or not does anybody know the reason?
