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.

Framber Valdez said he didn't hit his catcher in the chest with a 93-mph fastball on purpose, and hey maybe not, but you should probably not look have a look on your face afterwards that suggests that you did it on purpose and would do it again when that's the case.— Marc Normandin (@marcnormandin.bsky.social) 2025-09-03T13:38:34.266Z

There’s not much reason to keep Sugano in the rotation in September other than deference to his legacy and preserving good relationships in Japan, which, fair.— D’Janiel Sanchez (@oriolesreview.bsky.social) 2025-08-31T22:32:23.835Z

Around the Bases

First Base: Greetings to Arms

Since Episode 415, we have seen the return of three long-awaited pitchers:

* Kyle Bradish

* Albert Suarez

* Tyler Wells

This leaves us feeling a way. Even when we don’t agree with their utilization, it’s still great to see them back.

Second Base: Pain Measure

Basically, this, but Orioles Baseball. Siiiiiiigh.

Third Base: Fantasy Toss

We start fantasizing about what a rotation could look like in 2026, and discover that one of our imaginations is more capable than the other.

Fear not! There is a an all-former Orioles rotation to be had out there in the 2026 free agent market!

Home Plate: Meaningless Games in September

Here in the 2025 season, the Orioles proved that old adage that you can’t win a pennant in April, but you can certainly lose one. This season has been a wreck from the start. And as such, they’re just going to be going through the motions until they can hit the golf course.

It’s a shame that they performed so poorly in August,
