About this episode
The episode discusses the Orioles' recent struggles against the Rays and the contrasting reactions within the organization.
The Orioles getting swept by the Rays has triggered a lot of angst and soul-searching in Birdland, except some reporting indicates there's very little of that in the front office right now. Ben McDonald's unloading on "analytics" after the Rays series landed loudly in this environment. Mark tries to figure out what to make of all this. Learn more about your ad choices.
