Leading Off

Yes, that is a “Miley” pun, for the episode title. No, we’re not sorry. Ladies and gentlemen, the Orioles did stuff at the trade deadline. We can’t say that it was particularly impressive stuff, but it was stuff. The O’s have been scuffling, but remain in first place.

Also, we heart Steve Pearce. Like whoa.

Fantasy Boss

Fantasy Boss

Jake takes the week, as Chris Davis ended up in the over of 10.5 strikeouts. The score is no 7-5, and Scott is on the clock for the next category.

This week, we go very simple, as we look to see which Oriole tallies the most dongs. Jake went with new/returning Oriole, Steve Pearce, whereas Scott took Manny Machado.

 

Don’t forget about our 2016 Fantasy Boss Wild Cards!

Next Oriole to hit a triple.

Scott: Schoop

Jake: Wieters (yes, really)

Blowing the Save

9511479204_bef874af1e_o

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.
