As the Ravens go to summer break, the duo discuss the legend and lore of Derrick Henry and what will make the Ravens’ offense Super Bowl worthy by February. The #RavensFlock will love this one…

Maybe get him down to a ballgame. Thought I was going to head down to some of the Braves games this week up. I am not doing the Phillies this weekend, but I am doing Fleet Week we’re going to be at Coopers in Fells Point on Friday. I am wearing my caster shirt. We’re going to be a Costas in Dundalk. They were established in 71. I was established in 68. We’re gonna be over there on Thursday afternoon Jessica valus. from Hartford designed to just redid our entire websites. If you’ve been to our website lately, you’ll see lots of things have changed around there all are brought to you by our friends at the Maryland lottery. We’ll have crabcakes we will have the Orioles in the Yankees on the television on Thursday, and the Gold Rush sevens doublers that have been a lucky batch. We had some winners over Coco’s, if you heard any of our programming, Microsoft Liano came by I love to have and Max Weiss and Ellen McCallum talk music and movies. And we did very little sports in that segment and then Tom Pearson classic five, who was a Philadelphian by birth a Baltimorean by choice. Talking Phillies and Orioles all weekend long and Marcela gave me crab cakes and ribs and Korean food and who knows what you can get and laurelville were Costas on Thursday word Pappus. On the 25th. We’re getting out into the community making our way around. I’ve got a Coco’s crab cake. Sit down in the fridge right now that I got to put under the fryer and the football players have dispersed. So as much as Luke is Mr. Baseball here, all I can think about is Tom Selleck. And you having wha when I think of Mr. Baseball, you’ve been football all week. And as we all know, as I will be writing about later in the summer, only one of us is credentialed, not the Venezuelan at either place. I’ve been a bad boy. But you like double duty. And Thursday’s a great example. And I will use this for Chad’s deal and for Greg Bader to say, when there’s only one of you and two of them, you have to pick one. So you did ravens camp, they’re about to depart for oh, good six, eight weeks here. You tell me when camp starts again, I’m not on the email list. But Quiet Kind of exactly what you wanted, right? I mean, you missed a couple of baseball games out of this, but good football practices, people showing up the Marlon Humphrey news on Thursday. Boy, they always keep a little something up their sleeve, just to let you know, they’re not honest. And they’re not upfront, and they’re not going to offer things like the Marlin Humphrey thing.

Luke Jones 02:53

It was a successful weekend on the field against the Phillies but costly on the mound as Kyle Bradish becomes the latest Orioles starter who appears headed for a Tommy John surgery as the rotation continues to adapt – and the Birds continue to win.

Yankees Orioles meaningful series for first place mid June. You naysayers have big series in June from months ago now that we’ve had sort of a monumental weekend if you’re an Orioles fan in regard to the memory timeline of you, in our previous segment, like comparing it to a 2131 a Delmon young something that’s memorable for this generation to go and say, Yeah, I was there on Father’s Day when they shellac Zack Wheeler and and carbon burns stood up and Grayson Rodriguez before that. But really Bradish What’s the story of the weekend and as I was driving down to Jamie Costello, some retirement party, we’re all the holy Palaui we’re still haven’t talked to Mary Beth Mars and I’m upset about that. But I you know, I even said to my wife, I’m like that, you know, they could sweep this weekend against the Phillies and this Bradish thing that’s now stacked on top of the wells thing stacked on top of the means thanks stacked on top of the Batista thing. Not necessarily an Orioles problem. We’ve talked about this. And you know, we can go into Tommy John, and you can Google all that look, and I’ve talked about this every week, because every week they’re losing another pitcher, dude.

Luke Jones 02:30

Yeah, I mean, it’s just it’s really disappointing. It’s odd. Because first day of spring training, Mike Elias announces that Kyle Bradish is dealing with a sprain to his UCL. And what did everyone think at the time, Oh, this guy’s not going to pitch this year, season over for him, Tommy John surgery all that you

And let’s be clear, and I, I’ve stressed this over and over and over. These guys are not robots. And it’s very easy for someone else to sit there and say, Go get your elbow cut on. And John means can be

Sure, there were a lot of Philadelphia Phillies fans downtown this weekend. And as Luke Jones and Nestor point out, that’s not a bad thing when they leave their money and go home with a series loss to the powerhouse Orioles.

As the Philadelphia Phillies and their fans prepare to invade Baltimore for Maryland Fleet Weekend, Luke Jones and Nestor prepare for an all-too-rare June series of significance at Oriole Park Camden Yards.

Welcome home we are a W n s t test Baltimore, Baltimore positive or positive we get back out on the road. We’re gonna be a fleet week on Friday and then next week I’m wearing my pappy shirt. That’s two weeks. That will be a Costas next Thursday. Before the Orioles Yankees game from one to four and then on the 25th we will be at Pappas in Parkville. The original World Famous crabcakes I’m wearing my pappy shirt all the brought to you by our friends at the Maryland lottery. I had to learn this the right way. It’s gold rush sevens. doubler not gold rush double sevens. I got that wrong. So I’m giving these away either way. They are lucky. I had a $20 winner over a Coco’s on Wednesday. Great conversation to Coco’s a bunch of good friends stopped by over SIG and Max Weiss stopped by Tom Pierce from classic five golf who he’s a Phillies fan speaking to Phillies fan. I used to be one this guy SR married into a family full of them he’s about to become an uncle a squared this weekend. Just in time for the Philadelphia Phillies to get here he was at most of the games of this series was running around with the Ravens earlier this week. And as you know, they only allow wn st one credential for one person so we didn’t get to cover everything this week. But Luke is overworked and as always ready to deliver on all things. Orioles. Big week, man, you know this brace thing you can’t sweep everybody dude. I mean, everybody wants a broom, a broom. It’s like the baseball teams never supposed to lose when they’re playing good teams. If we get together next week, and they don’t lose to the Phillies, in the Yankees, they’ve done something. But this is this is as good a week of baseball as they’re going to find competitive wise until they probably get to

October. No question about it. I think there’s always this sense of looking ahead October, we’ve talked about this with the ravens, January, January, January, it’s all about January. It’s becoming more and more that way for the Orioles. But I think this is a week to make sure you’re not missing the forest for the trees in the sense of this is the kind of week this weekend series specifically with the Phillies coming in is the kind of series that Orioles fans could only dream about for a really really long time. You know, there’s nostalgia 1983 Which obviously holds a special place in my heart because I was born two months before two weeks before the Orioles want last won a World Series. And as you mentioned, I mean there’s a local connection with Philadelphia just being right up the road. But you’re talking about two of the three best teams in baseball and then when the Orioles are done with the Phillies, they’ll go to the Bronx and play the other of those three best teams. It really is exciting. It’s fun. I mean, when I saw the pitching matchups, and I talked to you a couple days ago about this, I think we were just texting about it. When I saw what the pitching matchups could be for this weekend series, which we already know Saturday and Sunday was announced about a week and a half ago that were they were sellouts. I’m sure they’re going to be plenty of Philadelphia fans. Friday nights, I would assume i

With Owings Mills percolating all week with the sounds of football and a last look before summer vacation, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the cadence, value and measurement of these Baltimore Ravens mini-camp practices.

With a full rotation of effective, quality starts against Tampa and Atlanta, the Orioles pitching feels better than it did when John Means and Tyler Wells went down for the season. Luke Jones and Nestor marvel at the effectiveness of the rotation and how they’ll need it with the Phillies and Yankees ahead.

I mean, they like they never lose. I mean, like, I don’t know how often we said I you St. Louis, but that was so two weeks ago. There. This is an amazing baseball team. And as the guy standing locked out watching it on TV, you’re there. You couldn’t be there Tuesday night, your sister’s going to be giving birth to another little little Jones Papoose for you. But this is an exciting thing to have this team come back playing baseball like this. And look, the Phillies fans are going to fill it up this weekend. I don’t have any doubt about that. But this team’s great.

Luke Jones 02:27
