The Baltimore Orioles' Brandon Hyde was named the American League Manager of the Year on Tuesday, as the Miami Marlins' Skip Schumaker won the National League award.
Under Hyde, the Orioles orchestrated one of the most impressive two-season turnarounds in MLB history. In 2021, they were — once again — the worst team in the majors.
They had finished 52-110, the third time in four seasons they had lost at least 108 games, and the second time they had done so under Hyde.
The rebuild was trudging along very slowly, and winning seasons still appeared to be a distant dream. Then, in 2022, the Orioles improved to 83-79.
