Good Morning, Birdland S3E39: The Declaration of Incompetence
7/4/2025
The Orioles have now played as many games under Tony Mansolino as they did under Brandon Hyde and they're actually above .500 in that stretch. Really: 22-21. Mark is thinking about how they've done this even with injury headwinds remaining against them over that time. Plus, looking ahead to this weekend's matchup with another 2025 disappointment, the Atlanta Braves. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E38: The Next Wave
6/30/2025
The Orioles are 15-11 in June, which is pretty good. Mark just can't lose sight of the fact that April and May dug such a huge hole, so the next month is going to be about the O's probably trading away players to try to reinforce the next wave coming from the system. Six-plus years into his tenure, Mike Elias still hasn't really done much to turn late-draft depth into prospects. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E37: Free the Bird!
6/27/2025
People have been gradually reaching the breaking point where they finally give up on the 2025 Orioles for most of the last month and a half. Did you hit yours yet? Mark figures everyone must have and goes into some comparing of this year to 2018. Also, he goes on a lengthy rant about how you hardly ever see the Oriole Bird any more, and that's a shame.

Good Morning, Birdland S3E36: Les Miserables
6/23/2025
Fresh off of watching a performance of the Les Miserables musical, Mark is thinking about all the ways that the 2025 Orioles are even more depressing and full of tragedy than the Victor Hugo book, without even the benefit of a redemptive arc of salvation. Don't worry, this bit only lasts for about 25% of the episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E35: Who's Gonna Pitch?
6/20/2025
If anyone had started to feel better about the Orioles lately, they shredded that pretty well with Wednesday's awful loss to the Rays. Mark is still steaming about it, and concerned about how it reflects on something bad in the big picture: There's nobody good to pitch this year maybe next year either.

Good Morning, Birdland S3E34: Another Sweep
6/16/2025
The Orioles are fresh off a three-game sweep of the Angels where they won each game in a different way, giving them a 14-6 record over the last 20 games. Not bad at all! It's enough that Mark is feeling better about their trajectory, though he wants everyone to keep in mind the one guy who REALLY has to be convinced is Mike Elias. Learn more about your ad choices.

Good Morning, Birdland S3E33: This Is Who They Are
6/13/2025

In the mailbag of this episode, Mark goes into his thoughts on the catching situation and specifically whether Adley is back. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E32: Return to Reality
6/9/2025
If the Orioles had managed to play a good series against the Athletics, Mark might have been able to feel good about them for a while longer. They didn't.

Good Morning, Birdland S3E31: Six Straight Wins!

Good Morning, Birdland S3E30: The Problems (Pitching)
6/2/2025
The Orioles just swept the White Sox and they've won six of eight games, but they've hurt Mark too much this year for him to believe that means they can keep it up.

In this episode, Mark highlights a number of specific areas where the offense is failing, before moving on to some prospects who were unheralded before the season but may be making more of a name for themselves.

Good Morning, Birdland S3E28: Avoiding the Stupid
5/26/2025
After watching Friday's game where Seranthony Domínguez, Gregory Soto, and Cionel Pérez combined to turn a game the Orioles led into a laugher blowout loss, Mark has a simple plea for Mike Elias: Find somebody who can stop you from doing stuff that any doofus could look at and recognize is dumb.

Good Morning, Birdland S3E27: What Now?
5/23/2025
Mark left for a weekend and it happened: Brandon Hyde got the boot, a bad pitcher (Kyle Gibson) was dumped, and the Orioles tried to move on. For a few days, they kept losing. Now we'll see if they can fix stuff. Today in the mailbag, some second-guessing of Elias's offseason decisions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E26: The Waiting Game
5/16/2025
The Orioles just got swept AGAIN by the Twins for one more reminder that nothing is going right for them in 2025. They've got a record that puts them more in company with the tanking teams of 2018-2021. Mark had already given up hope and still they keep him feeling bad. In the mailbag this episode, thoughts on Cedric Mullins and Brandon Hyde. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E25: A Starting Point
5/12/2025
Injured Orioles are making their way back to the team, you can almost believe the starting rotation could stabilize, and now it's going to be up to the hitters to hit better, especially against lefties, like they did in beating the Angels on Sunday. Mark talks through the current state of the team and checks in on the top 10 prospects through about a month of action,. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E24: Still Sliding
5/9/2025
The Orioles are still mixing in all of their different 2025 struggles to make sure not just that they're losing games but losing them in the way that leaves fans feeling the most demoralized possible for the future. After seeing them get swept by the Twins, Mark is ready to give up on this season ending up anywhere good. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E23: They Ain't Got It
5/5/2025
The Orioles still haven't either won three games in a row or two series in a row after largely stinking it up against the Royals over the weekend. Mark looks at some of the lowlights and tries (without much success) to believe in better times to come. A lot that's been going wrong has to start going right, and soon.

Good Morning, Birdland S3E22: SMFB
5/2/2025
The vibes MAY have turned for the better with the Orioles in winning two out of three games against the Yankees, thanks to Ryan O'Hearn's "shouldn't say that on live TV" battle cry. But it won't matter if they can't sustain it with some better starting pitching and/or hitting against lefties. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E21: Everything Sucks
4/28/2025
With the exception of Cedric Mullins, pretty much everything about the Orioles sucks right now. It'd be one thing if it was just Mike Elias's starting rotation plan failing, but the pathetic offense from players who are supposed to be key for years to come is not good. Mark is not here to make anyone feel better, only to share in the misery. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Good Morning, Birdland S3E20: The Road to Improvement
4/25/2025
The Orioles only won one game in their series against the Nationals, but after two good starting pitcher outings in a row, Mark can almost sort of squint and see some kind of road for improvement. In the mailbag, some thoughts on the defense, which is decidedly NOT improved. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
