“As manager of baseball operations, the bad start of our season is finally my responsibility,” said Vice-President and Director General of Orioles, Mike Elias, in a press release. “Part of this responsibility is to pursue difficult changes in order to define a different course for the future.
“I would like to thank Brandon for his hard work, his dedication and his passion all these years and for having returned the team to the playoffs and won an Al East championship. His many positive contributions to this organization and in Baltimore will remain, and we wish that he and his family the best.”
