Leading Off

Reunited, and it feels so good. Scott and Jake are back for this episode of Bird’s Eye View, where we discuss the epic highs and crushing lows.

Not really – we’re emotionally numb from this season. We do shtick on the  Twilight Zone, Hamilton, and steal bits from the Tonight Show. If 2018 is going to be dystopian on the field, why can’t the podcast be?

Join us for The Drink of the Week. Don’t forget to drink socially with us on Untappd.

Buck Showalter, who is on the competition committee, said there's a chance shift will be outlawed next year with two infielders on each side. "I know Chris Davis would like that." #Orioles

Looking forward to @BirdsEyeViewBal tomorrow. I assume the guys will be explaining to us all what the hell is going on in Birdland, as I am sure I have no idea.

Jon Meoli

Jon Meoli, of the Baltimore Sun is far more qualified than we to tell us what the heck is going on. Topics include:

* Will Adam Jones will be back after 2018

* Do baseball players watch the Bachelorette?

* Is anything with the organization actually changing?

* Is the marathon of bad any easier for the beat writers?

Jon writes some of the best words you can read about the Orioles, and you should find them in the
