September 05, 2017 Episode 216: Mas Pies
The Orioles are still very much in the AL Wild Card hunt. What do we make of the bullpen construction? Does Mark Trumbo hate fun? Is Jonathan Schoop an MVP?

August 29, 2017 Episode 215: Like Sands in the Hourglass
How confident should we be in these (very recently) resurgent Orioles? Would you consider yourself to by "Swaggy T" in this regard? Time is running short for the Orioles, and that just might not be the worst news.

Leading Off

Let’s face it: the Orioles’ last week was just not good enough. Falling back to four games back in the Wild Card race, the Orioles are just hanging on, dropping series at a time when they need desperately to be picking them up.
And yet, the O’s are not out of it. A good week, a good stretch of games could propel this team into a playoff berth. But at some point, they have to something something, or get off the pot. Right? RIGHT?!

The Medical Wing

We’re down just to J.J. Hardy. Hardy is set to begin a rehab assignment at Norfolk.

* Will that assignment last through roster expansion?
* Can Buck Showalter possibly live up to his promise to restore Hardy to the starting SS?
* How do we celebrate J.J. Hardy (a personal, and fan favorite) without giving games away?
* Is there a chance the season gets away from the Orioles far enough that Hardy gets his “swan song?”

**Bonus points to Scott’s audible disgust with the “swan song” reference.

The Orioles are working to squander a west coast trip. The guys go Point/Counterpoint on the season, and consider 2017 O's music.
