The Orioles are looking for a new GM and manager at the same time. I guess that's what happens when you lose 115 games. (Of course, having two 100-win teams in your division doesn't help you.)

well, who can be surprised. After the worst season in Orioles history, management sees a need to clean house and start with a new GM and field manager.

What about the coaches? Often a new manager wants to bring in a new pitching coach, 1st base coach, 3rd base coach, etc.

There’s nowhere to go but up. This season has been a long slog I’m sure, for both players and fans of the team.

If anyone digs the machinations behind pro baseball, they should do some searches about the Nationals/Orioles and MASN, the regional sports network owned by the Orioles that carries the National’s games.

How is their farm system?

It sounds like a major multi year challenge to rebuild that team. I hope they get some top baseball men, good GM and manager, to turn the team around.

Not much of a surprise.

But Brady Anderson will be retained in his executive position. In Baltimore, you have to pander to the Rainbow Flag critters.
