Episode 49: Billy Shears, WAR, and the Clutch

Leading Off

Episode 49 begins with a tip of the cap to the fine folks at OBP Apparel, for their great work on our new logo. Check out how awesome they are, and our spiffy new look:

At the top of the show, we go through our usual shtick:

  • Drink of the Week
  • #TheBrianRobertsWatch
  • The Medical Wing

Thanks to everyone who has followed us on Twitter and liked us on Facebook. We’re really feeling the love. Scott is busy giving stuff away left and right. Last week, we watched Wilson drift away, and this week, Scott has ensured that Aubrey Huff and Chris Davis got around.

 

A Little Help From My Friends

The O’s bullpen could use a little help – none more than Jim Johnson. Scott uses those pesky numbers to put the bullpen’s performance in perspective. Jake mocks, and adds little of value to the conversation.

WAR has been hotly debated on this program, but is CLUTCH really a stat? Yeesh…

 

Potpourri

Sexiest potpourri makes a return, as we listen to the sultry sounds of Alex Trebek. Topics addressed:

  • A-Rod on SNB
  • O’s troubles with RISP
  • Trade options (Justin Morneau or bust?)
  • Chris Davis
  • September call-ups

 

Fantasy Boss

Score: Jake, 5, Scott 1

Scott is starting to walk funny. Miguel Gonzalez posted more Ks than Chris Tillman, and Jake takes another win. This week’s category is pitches seen per AB – Scott goes with Nick Markakis, and Jake selects Chris Davis.

Who will own it?

 

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Who had a great week? Who had a terrible 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.
