Episode 243: Anger Translator

Published by Bird's Eye View at June 25, 2018

Leading Off

The Orioles went .500 this week. Is it the last time we see this kind of week?

Jake and Scott still can’t seem to find each other after #HugWatch. However, Scott is joined by JT Gwozdz (@Gwozdzilla) to put together the show.

We walk through the #MannyMachadoWatch and we get ready for a check-up in the Medical Wing.

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:

If the #Orioles win but @BirdsEyeViewBal doesn’t put a bird on it, does the win actually count? #ThursdayThoughts pic.twitter.com/sFtjxNVjNn

@BirdsEyeViewBal @EutawStReport @CamdenDepot @DAtkinsonOU @b_pinter23 @Jim22Palmer say what you will about the org. or their record; but the fan base is solid! They were very well represented in Atlanta and made me feel proud to be an Oriole #oriolesinall30ballparks #orioles pic.twitter.com/2VsWub2Abq

Around the Bases

We touch on a plethora of meaningless topics as we get to the most important talk at Home Plate.

First Base

The Orioles offense woke up this week. Did anyone notice? Did anyone care?

Second Base

Fans on prior Buck teams have been quick to judge him for his stubbornness. Are we starting to see that now?

Buck on how game got so crazy: : “Well, the launch angles … No, that’s baseball. That’s why you don’t play it on a computer and it’s not purely analytical. That’s why people come, because things happen that aren’t supposed to happen on paper." #orioles

Third Base

Zach Britton has returned and has done nothing to help the Orioles or himself with his future value. Can Zach turn it around?

Home Plate

Every four years, all of the world comes together to celebrate the most beautiful game in the world. No, it’s not the World Baseball Classic.

Give us a few minutes to try to convince you who you should be rooting for during the rest of the World Cup.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Who had a great week? Who had a tough week? Who made us ashamed to be Orioles fans? Find out in this week’s GB&U. The guys run through their Good, Bad, and Ugly for the week.

Tweet us your selections @birdseyeviewbal with #OsGood, #OsBad, and #OsUgly.

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.
