Let’s get right into it today…
Could Wilson & Wright Be the O’s Next Dynamic Duo?
Bird’s Eye View’s Scott Magness, writing at Baltimore Sports Report, says that Mike Wright and Tyler Wilson are best buds even though they’re likely competing for the same roster/rotation spot. They’ve also been pitching quite well this spring, especially compared to some guys who were already penciled into the starting five. He throws in a Scrubs reference, which I can never resist.

Speaking of Scott, he and Jake are back with Episode 157, in which they discuss Buck’s latest hilarious quotes, offer up their 2016 MLB predictions (Scott’s are really gross) and of course, blow the save. Listen in.
Hyun-Soo Kim and How We Got Here
Where there was smoke, there was apparently fire when it came to the rumors swirling around Hyun-Soo Kim, as Dan Duquette confirmed on MASN that he won’t make the 25-man roster to start the season. So, how did we get here? Jon Shepherd of Camden Depot dives in, and says that Kim’s inability to show any power at all this spring likely had a lot to do with the position in which he currently finds himself.
The 2016 Baltimore Orioles Will…
Chris Stoner of Baltimore Sports and Life lays out a comprehensive Orioles preview for the upcoming season, paying particular attention to Chris Tillman. Will we see 2012-14 Tillman, or 2015 Tillman? The O’s fortunes likely rest heavily on the answer to that questions. Musings on Dylan Bundy, Hyun-Soo Kim, Mark Trumbo and more await you at the link.
Baseball’s Latest Recruit is an iPad
NFL teams have had tablets on the sidelines for a couple years now. However, they haven’t been iPads, but rather Microsoft Surfaces, as they try to remind you as often as possible. No matter…everyone still just calls them iPads. When you see tablets in MLB dugouts this year, you’ll be correct to call them by Apple’s name though, as Nathan Oliverez-Giles of The Wall Street Journal reports.
