Leading Off
See, Orioles? We just wanted to love you. After an abysmal start, the Orioles put on a show in New York. If you’re anything like us, you expected the worst. And yet, we were rewarded with hope. Sometimes baseball is the worst. But this this weekend, it was the best.
This leads us to ask, WERE YOU THERE for the Orioles winning streak?

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

You may have noticed that real, live baseball passed last week, and we failed to revisit one of our favorite segments, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. We figured it was an exercise in small sample size, but… well… we’ve gotten a little bit of grief for it.
So, this is our mea culpa. We go through an extended version, but next week, we’ll return to the familiar format. In the meantime, feel free to remind us what we missed by tweeting us @birdseyeviewbal.

A lot more good than bad or ugly in this week. After a surprisingly pleasant trip to the Bronx, the guys inject a little positivity into the podcast.

Leading Off
The season has started, and the Orioles have picked up right where they left off in September. And… that’s not such a good thing. After an exhilarating Opening Day, the O’s have decided not to pitch, not to hit, and not to defend. We’re not sure what’s going on, but it appears that the Orioles have built their 2018 season on an ancient burial ground.
Don’t worry, the Orioles only have to face the Astros, Yankees, Red Sox, Indians, and others. It would be nice to see the home town team acknowledge that the season has started.

I've accepted a consulting role with a major-league team that'll last through the entire 2018 season and potentially beyond. I'm really very excited about the opportunity, but sad to not be writing at BP any more.
— Jeff Long (@JeffLongBP) April 2, 2018

Today’s game has been postponed due to weather.
Further details to come.

It appears I entirely missed someone being mad about a bunt yesterday, and I'm pretty okay with that.

Derek Arnold, of Eutaw Street Report

Derek Arnold of Eutaw Street Report joins us to overreact to the opening series, against the Minnesota Twins. If anyone is capable of providing a lack of insight and baseless opinion, it’s this guy – Derek is one of our favorite guests, and favorite people in the Orioles content creating community.
Derek works through the offense, defense, and pitching, in addition to weighing in on things that don’t matter. Hey, it is Bird’s Eye View, after all.
