It’s Brett Ballantini’s favorite week of the month, when he gets to again call on president and GM of the first-place Birmingham Barons, Jonathan Nelson. Even after a tightly-fought series in Pensacola didn’t go Birmingham’s way, the club is still tops in the Southern League.

  • How manager Sergio Santos has handled the first tough turn of the season
  • Inside baseball: How Jonathan works hand-in-hand with this field manager
  • A preview of this week’s home series hosting the Chattanooga Lookouts, worst in the Southern League
  • Bryan Ramos’ call-up and delightful character
  • Will Brooks Baldwin ever stop hitting
  • The phenom, Wilfred Veras
  • The most terrifying offensive weapon in Birmingham? It could very well be a healthy Duke Ellis and his speed demonry
  • How is catcher Edgar Quero shaping up as a leader and game-caller?
  • Three quick speed-round questions with Jonathan off-the-field
  • Is Mason Adams the surprise ace of the Barons?
  • Eric Adler arrives in town to give Birmingham another late-inning killer
  • The southpaw starting pair of Jake Eder and Ky Bush
  • How the Barons brass on the ground in Birmingham plays into any promotion/demotion decisions
  • Do these podcasts provide the good luck for the team, meaning that soon Brett may need to be packing his bags for Birmingham?
