    The Bat Around-March 8th, 2026- Dillon Atkinson Fills In

    We're halfway through Spring Training and Spring sure is in the air! The clocks have rolled forward, the birds are chirping, Gunnar is smacking 4 base hits in meaningful games! And, the Orioles sure are baseballin' down there in Sarasota! Aside from the Jordan Westburg and Jackson Holliday news to start camp, it's been a quiet ST to this point, and with a new manager, new star power, and a last place finish still letting off fumes, that's probably exactly how the Orioles want it. The Axe-Man, Dillon Atkinson, fills in for Zach to talk all things baseball on The Bat Around!

    The Bat Around- March 1st, 2026

    With the World Baseball Classic beginning this coming week, Enrique Bradfield made sure to leave a lasting impression before he joins Team Netherlands. The former first round pick was a menace on the basepaths on Sunday while also making an eye-popping catch in RF in the Orioles 8-7 victory, showing the elite speed and range that made him a top draft pick for the club. Plus, Heston Kjerstad and Samuel Basallo put on a show, reaching base in all six plate appearances before coming out of the came. How much can this trio impact the big league club this season? Paul and Zach discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

    The Bat Around- Feb. 22nd, 2026

    Well, the news just keeps getting worse for Jordan Westburg, as his oblique strain looks like a cramp now that a partial tear to his right UCL has taken center stage. Out through April at a minimum, the Orioles--and Westburg--hope that a PRP injection will salvage his season, otherwise it looks like Tommy John Surgery for the former All-Star. Paul & Zach discuss the impact Westburg's injury will have, and what it means for Coby Mayo. Plus, the Polar Bear has played two games and has hit two HRs. So far, so good? And does Heston Kjerstad have a chance to make this roster? Find out that and more on The Bat Around!

    The Bat Aound-February 15th, 2026

    It's officially the 2026 Baseball Season as The Bat Around is back to it's normal time slot of 8:30 PM Sunday Nights. And you know what that means...Zach Moore is back! Paul and Zach get you primed for the Grapefruit League schedule which is set to begin on Friday. Does Chris Bassitt put the Orioles over the top? Do you believe Mike Elias when he says Blaze Alexander's acquisition was a lucky coincidence, or is the VP and de facto GM spinning another yarn to cover up Holliday's hamate bone injury? Plus, Jordan Westburg slept funny again and will miss time this spring with an oblique strain. SOMEBODY GET THIS MAN A TEMPURPEDIC! And what do these injuries mean for Coby Mayo? That and more on The Bat Around!

    The Bat Around- February 7th, 2026- Jeremy Conn Fills In

    *Power went out at about the 1:16 mark in the show. To hear the end, skip to 1:20* Spring Training is just days away, and the Orioles are improved heading into 2026, but just how improved are they? The offense should get a boost with the additions of Pete Alonso and Taylor Ward, but did the team do enough to address the holes in the rotation and bullpen? Framber Valdez was the last big arm on the market and he signed with Detroit, leaving the Orioles to sort through the bargain bin for another rotation piece. Was Mike Elias caught sitting on his hands after stating they wanted to add a top of the rotation piece, or is their more to the story? Jeremy Conn of 105.7 The Fan's Big Bad Morning Show joins Paul to discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

    The Bat Around-January 31st, 2026-Ryan Blake Fills in, Again

    The Hot Stove has followed the weather patterns here in Maryland, as things have gotten ice cold for the Baltimore Orioles. After starting the offseason with a flurry of moves like Taylor Ward, Pete Alonso, Ryan Helsley, and Andrew Kittredge, the Orioles have left multiple boxes unchecked with less than two weeks until pitchers and catchers report to Sarasota. The needs? Another starting pitcher (preferably an ace), a power lefty in the 'pen, and perhaps a centerfielder? Are they really planning on Leodys Taveras being a role player on this team? Ryan Blake is back for one more show as he joins Paul to discuss this and more on The Bat Around!

    The Bat Around is back for good, with shows today and each of the next two Saturdays (1/31, 2/7) before returning to 8:30 PM Sundays beginning Sunday, February 15th. Today, Ryan Blake fills in for Zach Moore to discuss the Orioles offseason, if they're done making moves, potential lineups, and if this team is good enough to contend as currently constructed. Plus, are the Dodgers ruining baseball, or just playing within the constructs of the current CBA? Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

    The Bat Around-January 3rd, 2026-Griffin Bass Guest

    The holidays have come and gone, and the hot stove has cooled with the frigid temperatures of January arriving. But Spring Training, the WBC, and Opening Day are right around the corner, and the Orioles have revamped an already talented albeit underperforming roster as they look to take a massive step forward and return to the postseason in 2026. Griffin Bass fills in for Zach Moore as he joins Paul to discuss the offseason so far and compare the Orioles to the rest of the division. Have they done enough to over take the Beasts of the East, or does Mike Elias have another trick up his sleeve? That and more on The Bat Around!
