Another tough week on the field for the Birds and the Bird Brains talk to the fact that it's not only a pitching problem.

We also discuss the need for leadership in clubhouse and who might be the guy to do it.

After a disastrous Bloody Sunday loss to the Reds the Orioles are in need of a rotation piece. Today we welcome Derek Baker to the show as he gives us a few starting pitchers from around MLB that would make sense for the Orioles to pursue in a trade.
