Bird's Eye View is an unofficial Orioles podcast from the perspective of two die-hard fans. Here, we experience the ups and downs of Orioles baseball, and do our fair share of praising and mocking our beloved team. Our position from the cheap seats helps provide that “Bird’s Eye View.” What we bring is perspective. We offer content that will entertain, (very) occasionally inform, and more often than not, validate a little homerism. When it comes to the Orioles, this is your official source for a lack of insight, and baseless opinion.

Episode 401: Pour Some Sugano on Me

Leading Off

Spring Training has begun, and the Orioles are… you know… doing stuff. There may not be many position battles, so the team’s primary opponent is injury.

Around the Bases

First Base: The Need for Speed

Most Spring Training sound bytes are useless, but Brandon Hyde mentioned that he would like to see some of his guys work to add more stolen bases to the mix. Have stolen bases truly been a missing component in the Orioles’ game?

Second Base: Overreactions to Tomoyuki Sugano

Are we going to love translator Yuto Sakurai as much as Brandon Quionnes? Sugano pitched as well as one could have hoped. But… will it be enough? If he can be a 4th-5th starter in the AL East, then he will have held up his end of the bargain.

Third Base: Too Early for Rosturbation?

There really aren’t that many roster spots in question this year. But who is on the bubble? We unravel the least of the mysteries.

Home Plate: ABS in Spring Training

MLB has tried the ABS pitch challenge system in the independent leagues, they’ve toyed with it in the minors, and in 2025, they have introduced it in Spring Training. Here at Bird’s Eye View, we think that it’s here, and it’s spectacular.

Opportunities

Every once in a while, the Orioles put out job listings, and we look at them. But we have seen nothing like the current opportunities available for Live Hot Dog Race enthusiasts.

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,
