This Week on the Twitters

David Ortiz with a 32.4 home run trot… Slowest of the season. He now owns 3 of the top 5.

I’m already sure that I will not enjoy a Brian Matuz at bat this season.

Speaking of Costner, doesn't his dad in FoD look like Joey Rickard? pic.twitter.com/38fYbOezxC

Adam Jones on Manny Machado in @ESPNMag — "In the clubhouse, we call him "Orejón": "big ears" in Spanish. No need to explain why."

Filling in the Gaps

All teams experience their fair share of injuries. The Orioles are just trying to squeeze theirs into a single week. The Birds have their very own MASH unit, with J.J. Hardy and Zach Britton going down in a short period of time. The prospects of getting Britton back are much rosier. Hardy has a hairline fracture in the foot he fouled a ball off during Sunday’s game, and will most likely miss 6-8 weeks.

With those key injuries, the team is begin to show cracks in the veneer.  Can they fill in the gaps and still keep everything afloat?

 

Truth or Truth?

Jake and Scott test each other to figure out the dirty secrets that each hold in this edition of “Truth or Truth”.

 

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.
