Searching for the soul of the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards

/

The Baltimore Orioles finished in last place, lost a half a million fans at the gate at Camden Yards and are searching for a soul this offseason while watching the rest of MLB hang bunting and play October baseball. Luke Jones attended the bizarre Tony Mansolino and Mike Elias press conference at The Warehouse on Monday. Nestor watched on his computer. Here, they discuss the word salad and measure the strategy of David Rubenstein and Michael Arougheti.

Examining the pedigree and hire of Orioles manager Craig Albernaz

/

As the heavy lifting of the offseason begins for the last-place Baltimore Orioles, the first step is complete. New manager Craig Albernaz brings plenty of fresh blood and great recommendations but as Luke Jones and Nestor point out, the players the team acquires this offseason and the maturation of a bevy of young, high-ceiling prospects will decide his fate in the dugout. It’s still baseball season in Baltimore!

Allen McCallum joins Luke Jones and Nestor to discuss all that ails Baltimore Orioles franchise

/

It feels inconceivable but Allen McCallum and Luke Jones were in agreement that they’ve never done a WNST radio segment together in all of the years we’ve been talking Baltimore Orioles with both of them. And our airwaves have featured more baseball chatter with these two guys than any other humans on earth. Clearly, last place and lousy continues to bring us all together in search of the greater Birdland good.

Taping up the Birds with John Eisenberg

/

Over the past two years, our pal and longtime writer and author John Eisenberg has unraveled the history of the Baltimore Orioles via his Bird Tapes on Substack and a series of new conversations with the legends of Birdland. Here, he joins Nestor to discuss the sudden unraveling of whatever Mike Elias had built and the uncertainty of new ownership with David Rubenstein as the Orioles have fired their longtime manager and sit mired in last place in the American League East.

Luke Jones and Nestor react to Mike Elias comments and more Orioles losing after Hyde firing

/

The Baltimore Orioles fired manager Brandon Hyde on Saturday morning via a press release with quotes from David Rubenstein and Mike Elias. The owner and general manager then hid for three days while every player on the roster got asked about it on Preakness day. We think that’s lousy leadership. Luke Jones and Nestor react to Elias’ tardy comments on Tuesday in Milwaukee and more last-place Orioles losing after the Hyde firing. A shameful week and season in Birdland.

Luke Jones and Nestor discuss what happens next for failing and flailing Orioles headed to Anaheim

/

There will be no place for Brandon Hyde to hide if this continues. Sure, he didn’t buy the groceries (or the pitching) but the manager is usually the first one to go when a promising baseball team disappoints like the in-progress collapse of the 2025 Baltimore Orioles. Or, maybe it’s just a hitting coach or two? But in-season firings certainly feel immigrant after another Birds’ sweep in Minnesota where the bats remained painfully silent.
