Episode 224: Hope Springs Elsewhere

–                          –                          –

Leading Off

Pitchers and catchers report tomorrow! Our long national nightmare is over – we’ve waited for the crack of the bat, the pop of the mitt, and most importantly:

GRAINY PICTURES OF GUYS IN SHORTS!!!

OK, so the early days of camp aren’t that exciting. But it’s infinitely better than no baseball at all.

 

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

This Week on the Twitters

Here is what is happening in the world of Orioles Baseball, in 280 characters, or fewer:

 

Spring Training Story Lines

With so much unsettled, here are the story lines that we’re watching, as camp unfolds:

  • What else gets done (besides, ahem, starting pitching)?
  • The scoop on Schoop
  • What does a rebound for Trumbo and Davis look like?
  •  Do any of the Rule 5 guys stick?
  • Are the Orioles OK with what they’ve got behind the plate? Are you?

 

From the Heart

With Valentine’s Day approaching, is it any wonder that the season of new beginnings for Orioles baseball coincides with the season of love? As such, Jake and Scott speak from the heart. They acknowledge their love for Orioles Baseball – a love that is weird, and difficult to explain to their wives.

 

How will I pitch to thee? Let me count the ways.

Two – that’s all we’ve got.

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.
