The Bird Brains Baseball Show

With only 1 week of Spring Training remaining, Dave and Jeff discuss the Baltimore Orioles Starting Rotation situation especially the 5th starter position competition.  Discussion veered into the outfield competition. A brief discussion on the 2025 Toronto Blue Jays roster as the opening series with the Orioles will be hosted in Toronto.

The show talks to the off season hitting coach and head trainer changes with the club.  Also we look into what appears to be a predictable roster once the O's break out of spring training. We give our 2025 introductory spring training Bird O' Prey and Bird Turd awards.  We wrap it up a look at the Value Menu that will be available in the stadium.

The 2025 season opener for the Bird Brains is in the books.  Dave and Jeff discuss the additions and subtractions from the Baltimore Oriole's 40 man roster that occurred during the off season.  Some early impressions on the payroll, personnel moves, and spring training.  Hear about the new Orioles and what we expect in 2025 season from them and some of the returning Birds. 

In the  Final episode of the 2024 season Jeff and Dave dive into the roster decisions the Orioles face this off season.  Discussions veer into O's that are entering unrestricted free agency, rules regarding eligibility for free agency, and qualifying offers the Orioles will need to decide to make or not to make.  Also an in depth look at the 2024 roster of arbitration eligible O's and their projected 2025 salaries.

Jeff and Dave lick their preverbal wounds recounting the Royals 2 game Wildcard sweep of the Orioles. Corbin Burnes receives a Bird of Prey award and the middle of the O's line-up collects a Bird Turd award for their inability to drive in runs.
