The owner and general manager then hid for three days while every player on the roster got asked about it on Preakness day. We think that’s lousy leadership. Luke Jones and Nestor react to Elias’ tardy comments on Tuesday in Milwaukee and more last-place Orioles losing after the Hyde firing. A shameful week and season in Birdland.

The Baltimore Orioles are in a bad spot and Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the job of Brandon Hyde – the motivator and manager – as the slump worsens and the left-handed pitchers on the other side stack up on the hill.
