Good morning, Birdland!
Normally, the formal announcement of a coaching staff that was already known would not pass as “news,” but we are in the midst of a lockout, so we take what we can get.
The Orioles released the names of their entire coaching staff for 2022 on Tuesday morning. Brandon Hyde’s supporting cast will be nine strong. Highlights include Fredi González moving into the bench coach role, a minor promotion from being “major league coach” a season ago. Ryan Fuller and Matt Borgschulte will be the new co-hitting coaches, as reported several weeks ago.
