Orlando Brown, Jr. sent out a rather cryptic tweet that has many speculating. Here's the real story!

Orlando Brown, Jr: I'm a Left Tackle!

In the third and final episode featuring interviews with the former coaches of recent Orioles' draft picks, Stoneman Douglas High School's Todd Fitz-Gerald joins me to discuss 2020 4th round pick, Coby Mayo. We talk about the strengths and weaknesses in Coby's game and what makes him a special talent. In the preceding minutes, I reminisce on the Frederick Keys and discuss how the Orioles were impacted by last week's Rule 5 Draft.

Coach Mark Roering of Dowling Catholic High School joins this week's podcast to discuss Orioles 2020 5th round draft pick, RHP Carter Baumler. We discuss his progress from freshman to senior year of high school and what he should bring to the table in the future, as well as his recent Tommy John surgery and how that will impact him moving forward. But first, I give my thoughts on the Rule 5 draft and throw out some names I'd like to see the Orioles consider.

University of Arkansas Hitting Coach Nate Thompson joins me on the first of three December episodes centered around recent Orioles draft picks. Thompson coached Orioles 2020 first round draft pick and #3 overall prospect, Heston Kjerstad, from 2018-2020. We chat about what O's fans can expect from Kjerstad and why he has had such a successful amateur career, preceded by some of my own thoughts on recent Orioles transactions.

Barstool Sports' Eric Arditti joins this week's podcast to talk Trey Mancini, Adley Rutschman, Mo Gaba, and much more. If you're not into snakes or Breaking Bad, the O's chatter begins around the 16-minute mark. We both love Mike Elias and Jim Palmer, and we're going to walk from Baltimore to Nashville if the Orioles move there.

The Orioles fan half of Cespedes Family BBQ, Jake Mintz, joins me in the fifth episode of the show. We each provide a list of our top 20 favorite O's prospect names in the system, but first, we dive into why it's disappointing that the Winter Meetings were cancelled as an in-person event as well as the ongoing reconfiguration of the minor leagues. Reliving some of our favorite Orioles memories is always fun, too.

CBS Sports NFL Insider and co-host of Inside Access on 105.7 The Fan, Jason La Canfora, joins me for the fourth episode of the podcast. We dive into the reasons behind switching team allegiances, the importance of Minor League Baseball, and the identity of the Orioles moving forward. Spoiler alert: Jason doesn't care if you don't think he's a true O's fan.

In Episode 03, I’m joined by Olivia Witherite, who spent 8 years working in different social media and marketing roles at MASN until she moved on to a job with The Athletic in 2019. We re-lived Clinchmas 2014 and discussed working in social media and being a woman in sports. You won’t want to miss Olivia’s story about talking on the phone with Jim Palmer and my story about accidentally stealing an AL East Champion t-shirt.

In this episode, I fly solo and talk about myself for 45 minutes. What good is a podcast if you can't get to know the host a little bit? I take you through my life as a baseball fan and an Orioles fan, sharing some experiences that have shaped me into who I am. I cover everything from 8-month-old Ryan watching Cal Ripken break Lou Gehrig's record to 24-year-old Ryan moving across the country to pursue a career in baseball scouting.

Give that Fan a Podcast Episode 2: About Me

In the debut episode of Give That Fan a Podcast, I’m joined by Paul Valle III, former host of The Payoff Pitch, who passes along the reins of the Eutaw Street Report podcast airwaves. We introduce you to the new show, recap the 2020 season, and take a look at what the Orioles roster might look like heading into next year.

Give That Fan a Podcast - Episode 1: Paul Valle III

Anthony Santander has finally joined the Orioles (it was revealed that he had tested positive for Covid19), but Dwight Smith Jr. is still nowhere to be found. Richie Martin suffered an injury requiring surgery and will be out for a few months. In the finale of The Payoff Pitch, Paul runs down those stories and more as we are now just over a week from our delayed MLB Opening Day. 

Paul's Payoff Pitch Farewell

In this week's episode of The Payoff Pitch, Paul goes over the Orioles' truncated 60-game schedule, wonders why a couple Orioles haven't been seen on the field yet, and tears into the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network for their refusal to show us any O's intrasquad or other summer camp action.

Show Me the Baseball!

Two weeks, two installments of The Payoff Pitch! It seems Major League Baseball and the Players Union got their heads out of their own posteriors long enough to reach an agreement on a 60-game season to be played in 66 days beginning July 23/24. And while excitement for the first live American team sports since March abounds, the future of the game of baseball, with a new Collective Bargaining Agreement on the horizon, is cloudier than ever. I delve into the details of the new season, while also looking at the gloom-and-doom that will inevitably be the 2021/22 offseason. Plus, a look at some Hall of Famers that are, and some that never were. Why is Derek Jeter treated like Babe Ruth when he's nothing more than Paul Molitor? Just hit play and find out on The Payoff Pitch.

Baseball is...Back?!

We're back! Hopefully MLB will follow shortly...why don't they already have a plan in place? Well, let's spend a few minutes talking about why Rob Manfred is the worst thing to happen to Major League Baseball in my lifetime. Maybe we'll have a shortened season and can talk about some real baseball soon...or maybe not, because Rob sucks. For now, let's talk about the guys the Orioles drafted in the 2020 Amateur Draft.

2020 MLB Draft Recap (And Rob Manfred Sucks)

Always play! The guys sit down with Hall of Fame player, Barry Stitz, to walk through his career, get his opinions on the D.A and to get some advice on coaching! This one is a MUST watch!
