The Baltimore Orioles have fired manager Brandon Hyde.
Fantasy Impact
Hyde is let go after a disastrous start to the season where the Orioles 15-28 record is currently the fourth-worst in all of baseball. He was the manager for Baltimore for seven years, including playoff appearances the past two seasons, but they didn't go far in either appearance. Between that combined with the start to this year, it was enough for Baltimore to part ways with Hyde. The interim manager will be third base coach Tony Mansolino.
Gunnar Henderson recorded two extra-base hits in Sunday's win for the Baltimore Orioles over the Angels, finishing 2-for-5 with a double and a two-run home run. He scored two runs and drove in two. Henderson's sixth-inning blast padded the Orioles' lead to 7-2.
