Leading Off
We missed a whole week of Orioles Baseball… but did we miss anything? Unless you count a massive loss streak, the answer is no. No, we did not miss anything.

This Week on the Twitters
Good News / Bad News
Look, it would be easy to beat up on a team that has lost 14 straight games and 22 of 24, but we feel that it’s important that we also pay attention to the good news stories that are happening in Orioles Baseball right now. We go back and forth between Good News and Bad News items to bring you a full picture and appreciation of the team.
Truth or Truth
When good news is hard to come by, it’s important that we be honest with ourselves – and one another. Also, when content is hard to come by, it’s important that we rip off late night bits.
Therefore, Jake and Scott take turns getting to the truth of the matter in an Orioles edition of Truth or Truth
Fantasy Boss
Jake wins this week’s Fantasy Boss. Two weeks ago (no show on 5/24) the category was over/under 2.5 stolen bases, and Jake took the under. There were in fact ZERO stolen bases that week.
That takes the contest to 4-2, in Jake’s favor, and he’s up to pick the category again.
This week, the category is XBHs.
Scott picked Anthony Santander.
Jake went with Freddy Galvis
Who will own it?
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.
