Leading Off

With 35 days from Opening Day, #OrangeSpring is officially underway. The Orioles have suffered injuries, suffered losses, and found a way to distract us from our work day. It’s a beautiful thing.

Remember to listen to Bird’s Eye View on Google Play Music!

Join us for The Drink of the Week and let us know what you’re up to via Twitter (@birdseyeviewbal), or on Untapped (jakee4025 and magn8606).

 

The Medical Wing

Remember: It’s OK if you giggle.

This week, the Medical Wing is occupied by:

* Chris Tillman – shoulder

* J.J. Hardy – back spasms

* Ryan Flaherty – arm soreness

* Zach Britton – oblique

* Michael Bourn – broken finger

Camden Couch, with Mark Brown

 

Mark Brown (@EatMoreEsskay) joins us to discuss our Matt Wieters related emotions, the top screw ups of MASN’s top 25 games at OPACY list, and which pronunciation choosey mom’s prefer.

It’s Spring Training – we tackle the heavy issues. It’s what we do, here at Bird’s Eye View.

Be sure to check out Mark’s fantastic writing (and that of many others) at Camden Chat, and follow the site on Twitter @CamdenChat.

Truth or Truth

 

Is truth really binary? Can one ever know what is truth and what is not? Can we choose to really know truth?

Can we steal a bit from Jimmy Fallon, and loosely tie it to Orioles Baseball? Find out in this installment of Truth or Truth. 

 

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.
