Leading Off
Spring Training is almost at a merciful end. The 2023 season is right around the corner, and we can finally put what has been a boring and disappointing offseason in the rearview mirror.
In the calm before that storm, we take our cues from recent Orioles Twitter happenings, and explore how we might automate ourselves away.

Bold Predictions
As with every season, we get things started by making wild guesses… er, making bold predictions – some in earnest and some facetious. OK, it’s us… many of them are facetious.
Feel free to send us your own Bold Prediction @birdseyeviewbal. Bonus points if they make you both excited about the season, and a little sad. We’re Orioles fans – we are complicated creatures.
Rise of the Machines
We gaze into the upcoming technological singularity and see how the ChatGPT language model might talk about the Baltimore Orioles. Who knows, maybe AI will produce all future Bird’s Eye View content – there has to be SOME intelligence involved.
We ask our “guest” about possible scenarios for the 2023 season that become increasingly less rooted in reality. Please ask ChatGPT to create some narrative around the most ridiculous Orioles scenarios you can find, and share with us.
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.
