The boys marvel at the seemingly endless stream of injuries hitting the Orioles.  A brief discussion on the starting pitching woes and a quick look at a handful of AAA prospects that project to get to the show in 2025.

Jeff goes on a rant about the lack of fundamentals and a cry to get the play on the field back to the "Oriole Way". An extensive talk about defensive stats that may explain the inconsistent performance on the field.

The Brains don't know whether to celebrate or cry about this team.  Check out this week's edition as we review the June high and gut punch loss to Tampa.
