 Leading Off

We made it!  Baseball is back!  Let’s get stupid…wait…that’s not right.

Thanks to everyone who watched our episode preview on Periscope. Find us on Periscope – birdseyeviewbal. Each week, we’ll broadcast an episode preview as well as the worst ideas that didn’t make the show.

We start, as always, with the Drink of the Week. Make sure to tell us what you’re up to via Twitter (@birdseyeviewbal), or on Untapped (jakee4025 and magn8606).

KC & PIT tied for most spring losses, and the Mets didn't win for 2 full weeks. I bet the teams w great records are all for real, though.

Ortiz on the ovation in a city he never played in before: "They watch TV, I guess." Called it surprising and welcome.

Around the Bases

Around the Bases is our segment we turn to when there is either too much going on to devote an entire segment to, or… not enough. You be the judge.

As the Orioles round out their Spring Training schedule, we take the leftovers, give them a stir, and throw them back in the microwave. Join us, as we go Around the Bases on the following:

First Base: Does Miggy come back to the organization, does he contribute at the MLB level?

Second Base: Is JJ for real this season? what will we get from him?

Third Base: So guys, what is a “Xavier Avery”

Interview with Ryan Wagner

 

What’s the one thing you want to hear on Opening Day? No, it’s not the drunken cries coming from Pickles.

Ryan Wagner, Public Address Announcer of the Baltimore Orioles, joins to prepare for the 2016 season and to give us his insight on MLB Social Media policy, the Baltimore Riots, and Top 40 Music right now.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Who had a great week? Who had a tough week? Who made us ashamed to be Orioles fans? Find out in this week’s GB&U. The guys run through their Good, Bad, and Ugly for the week.

Tweet us your selections @birdseyeviewbal with #OsGood, #OsBad, and #OsUgly.

 

Blowing the Save

Most podcasts try to end on a high note – the perfect coda to a quality program. That’s just not our style. Each week, we’ll end on a weak note, blowing the save with an item that didn’t quite fit into the episode, or something they simply need to get off their chests. It’s our version of taking the ball and pulling a Kevin Gregg.
