My thoughts on Brandon Hyde’s firing in Baltimore.

@TalkinBaseball_ Not sure if it’s the hat beard combo here or Michelle has you on a good diet but you look great Rosey!

@TalkinBaseball_ Prospect hugging. I’m stealing that, Chris. Leagues have become good at marketing young / prospect talent to the point where fans and GMs alike become obsessed w the hope over everything. They are called PROSPECTS for a reason and most of them don’t pan out. Go get talent when av

2 weeks ago we thought this was going to happen in Minnesota….Winning cures all ills. Crazy game this Baseball.

so true, Dennis.

“Stop prospect hunting and go get some serious help”. You also described our Guardians Chris. Except for the difference in record which run differential says is a fluke.

@TalkinBaseball_ Don Mattingly to Baltimore?

Its really funny to in one part critique his lineups and then in the next talk about how they only have 2 guys with an OPS > .800. This is just as much an organizational failure as the pirates and white sox. You have a young talented lineup and sign guys like Charlie Morton

Finally, change was needed. Maddon a world series winner was fired. You don't produce you get fired,

All of this could’ve been avoided if Mike Elias and Dave Rubenstein could spend so much money on getting maybe three or four veteran players that have playoff experience and give these rookie players that they have to build structure but they said no and this happens.

Don’t even mention the Trevor Rodgers deal. Elias trades two good prospects for a soft throwing lefty who can’t even make the roster. Meanwhile Stowers is flourishing. He finally parts with beloved prospects and he trades the wrong guy. Elias is next to go.
