I think it’s pretty wild how much people care about the identity of the manager. And I think it’s patently insane that half the front page is “Hyde sucks” and “Hyde needs to be fired” in various forms

The team gets one hit last night with an umpire that had a strike zone the size and shape of Texas and then you get a thread like this.  It’d be funny if it weren’t so sad.

There will not be any major coaching changes. This is going to be a 90-win playoff team that lost four of its top six SP.  Maybe the hitting coach goes if they finish the season singing the same

I don’t think it’s happening until next summer at the earliest. And that’s if things go badly between now and then. 

Of the three you mentioned, Britton would be a good short list candidate. I don’t think Buck would be considered and I don’t think Terry would come out of retirement.

Maybe the hitting coach goes if they finish the season singing the same note they are right now.  But Hyde isn’t going anywhere and probably not the rest of his staff.

I would like someone to look back on games in the second half and tell me how many Hyde lost. I think the hitting coach goes. But this team can't hit, field, or pitch consistently. How does Hyde fix all of those things. Now, if the players are quitting on him that is one thing, but everytime teams perform poorly we start hearing about chemistry. The players need to perform better.

Carlos Beltran was always considered a excellent choice until the Astros scandal. Does David Ross or Joe Giraldi deserve another shot?  See if Dusty or Madden are interested in coming back like Bruce Bochty did. The funny thing is most people though Hyde was only here for the losing years and would be replaced with someone better then the 101 wins happened last year.

      I think yesterday was the nail in the coffin for him being on the playoff roster, assuming we make it.

      Will the Orioles make the playoffs?

      I feel that way, too. I keep thinking about 2005.  2005: 10 games over .500 on June 20th. 1st place, two games up.  Shortly after they went on a 2-16 skid, and their last game at .500 was at the the start of that awful home 4 game series in late July when the White Sox swept them, and Raffy was exposed as taking PEDs. They fell under .500 that series and kept on sinking.  2024: 24 games over .500 on June 20th. 2nd place, a half game back.  Then immediately lose five straight. Due to their great start, they can't finish 14 under .500, but the dive feels eerily similar with all of the injuries, dormant bats, and all happening at the same time of year.  The floor coming out from underneath them feels a lot like it. That team was cooked by late July and by the first week of August, Mazzilli got the axe. That won't happen with Hyde this time, as they had a fine start this year, but this can't happen two years in a row under him.

      I know …. Gotcha. Trade away Stowers & Norby for Garbage and pick up Rivera & Jiminez. And be surprised when you offense stinks.

      It’s because the strategies that they are taught and employ work much better in the minors with pitchers with worse stuff and command than in the majors.  This, in turn, inflates their minor league stats.  The good news is that thus far after an adjustment period those players do seem to adjust and do well.

      Hyde Hot Seat

      By SilverRocket · Posted

      This was the lineup today: The problem is injuries. Hyde didn't have to run out this sort of lineup in May or June. You can nitpick about whether these were the right nine to start, but these are the players on the roster right now and it's because guys who were here in the winning months are not available.

      Hyde Hot Seat

      I think you agree Roy. The injuries are one thing, but combining them with the continual influx of rookies/ near-rookies - (as promising as they may be) creates instability.  Holliday, Cowser, Mayo, Norby, Kjerstad, Povich, even Stowers.  The past two years: Rutschman and Henderson. One rookie, a solid unremarkable, yet reliable core that had been playing together for several years. Maybe Elias needs to answer for this. I’m not buying the injury excuse for position players. The pitching - amazing job for the injury plague (Kimbrel not included). Have to wonder if these injuries have something to do with the training staff don’t you?
