If you had the opportunity to listen to or watch the Baltimore Orioles press conference introducing Brandon Hyde as the next manager of the franchise, then you probably heard how passionate he is and how much he loves the game. That should automatically get you excited for the upcoming season, no matter how the Orioles perform.
You could tell that Hyde and General Manager Mike Elias were on the same page when it comes to team goals, acquiring the best players and making sure they bring a winner to the City of Baltimore. It seemed like during the Dan Duquette/Buck Showalter era in Baltimore that they were probably butting heads, which makes it difficult to work together.
