As this is an uncommon bit of offseason Orioles news, the noon Eastern press conference will be carried on MASN and on 105.7 in Baltimore. For those stuck at work, you may also be able to get away with following live on the Orioles website, on Facebook, and on YouTube Michael Brantley Jersey , depending on how chill or unaware your immediate supervisor is of those times where you make no pretense towards productivity.It’s going to be interesting to hear what kind of things Hyde has to say, even if it doesn’t mean very much in the grand scheme of things. Saying the right things is a good start, but we’ve seen plenty of people say the right things and then prove to be unable to do them. A certain level of diplomacy is to be expected as well. One question that I would be interested to know the answer to is, “What are you going to do about Chris Davis if he sucks again?” Supposing a reporter asks a more polite version of that question, Hyde will surely repeat the line of his new boss that they’re going to do everything they can to have a productive Davis in the lineup.It is the truth, if not the whole truth, and that’s fair enough. Hyde has been officially the manager for just a few days. Maybe he’s called a few players, but he’s likely had no interaction whatsoever with the majority of the players. It wouldn’t do to offend them all before he ever gets to say hello in Sarasota in February. Today is not the day to expect completely candid answers on all topics.What we will hopefully hear about are some more specific commitments about the integration of analytics information from the front office to the field level. A variety of post-mortem reporting has suggested this was one of the larger problems of the end of the Dan Duquette/Buck Showalter era. We’ll see what Hyde has to say. I’ll be doing my best to transcribe he and Elias in the comments below.Hyde’s experience, as included by the team in the press release announcing his hire:We’ll see how it works out, but much like I’m glad that the team tried to find the next great new GM rather than a retread, I’m glad they’ve gone for new blood in a manager in their choice of Hyde.Here’s a couple of pictures of Hyde in his new uniform http://www.indiansfanproshop.com/authentic-b.j.-upton-jersey , from the Orioles Twitter account: After a season that shocked the baseball world, Matt Kemp capped off an impressive 2018 campaign by being named Sporting News’ Comeback Player of the Year"The improbable year for Matt Kemp continues. Back when he was traded to the Dodgers in December, many believed he wouldn’t suit up for LA. He proved the naysayers wrong, making the opening day roster. Kemp didn’t stop there, as he was named a starter in the All-Star Game, his first since 2012. Kemp wrapped up his incredible 2018 campaign by being named the Sporting News Comeback Player of the Year in the National League. He received 51 votes, ahead of Nick Markakis (34), Miles Mikolas (24) and Jonny Venters (13).On the year, Kemp hit .290/.338/.481/.818. He had 21 homers and drove in 85 runs. “Well, he’s a very talented hitter,” Clayton Kershaw said while speaking to reporters. “He’s always been able to hit the baseball. So him coming back Kenny Lofton Jersey , I think the only difference really I see is that I think he’s just -- it’s hard to explain. I think he’s just really bought in to what we’re doing here, and I think leaving and then coming back maybe helps him realize how good of an organization it is and some of the things that we’re trying to accomplish.”Kemp was traded to the Padres in 2015. He spent about a year-and-a-half there before being dealt to Atlanta. He spent another year-and-a-half with Atlanta, before being traded back to Los Angeles in December.“You know, he said it himself, getting back to the postseason and not playing on winning teams and things like that can be taxing when you’re used to doing that in the postseason and going,” Kershaw continued. “As far as a player, offensively I don’t see a whole lot of difference. I remember him in 2011 when he very easily could have been the MVP, and that swing is definitely still in there.”
