Podcast appearances and mentions of Mike Elias

Mike Elias isn't going anywhere. The Orioles handed him a promotion last offseason, and they just leaked it. Weird! Let's talk about it. BlueSky Twitter YouTube

Audacy MLB insider Tony Gwynn Jr. joined the show to discuss all things MLB with just a few weeks less in the season. He touches on the news of Mike Elias being promoted to team president, the Padres chances in the NL West, the Mets potentially missing the playoffs, and much more.

In the first hour of Inside Access, the guys discuss Marlon Humphrey's comments in the Ravens defensive maturity. They also talk about Mike Elias being promoted to the team president of the Orioles and are joined by Tony Gwynn Jr.

The Orioles have used the final stretch of the season as a tryout for their bullpen. Let's look at how things are going, and how Mike Elias might approach rebuilding the depleted group going into 2026. BlueSky Twitter YouTube

Ya estaban diciendo en la transmisión de Fox que los Orioles tenían una rotación de miedo para 2026 con Trevor Rogers, Kyle Bradish, Grayson Rodríguez, Zach Eflin y Dean Kremer, además de Tyler Wells y Cade Povich. (De que me están hablando franklin) No sé cual será el interés de algunos en que los Orioles no paguen en la agencia libre esos dos brazos que estamos reclamando desde antes de que termine la temporada, porque en años anteriores hemos confiado en el supuesto buen hacer de Mike Elias y de Seg Mejdal.

When it's been as lousy as it has been for as long as it has been, we all realized the Baltimore Orioles rebuild and retool under new ownership could be a "work in progress." Georgetown sports business professor and one-time leader of the Birdland sales and business operation Marty Conway discusses this tumultuous time in MLB for media, money and labor peace whilst Camden Yards gets renovated and David Rubenstein tries to figure out a baseball franchise presumably with Mike Elias still picking players. The post Sports business professor Marty Conway discusses Orioles offseason amidst Camden Yards renovation and angry fans first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

The Orioles have a pretty strong track record in the draft under Mike Elias, but one recent pick has not been climbing the farm system ladder as fast as expected. Tony Pente shared his thoughts on Vance Honeycutt's development.

Mike Elias has a ton on his plate heading into the upcoming offseason. How high of a priority will the manager search be?

Samuel Basallo becomes the first prospect of the Mike Elias era to get an extension. It's a great day! But why was Basallo the one that finally got a deal done? BlueSky Twitter YouTube

THEY FINALLY DID IT! The Orioles have locked up a member of their young core, and it's an unlikely candidate indeed. Samuel Basallo has received an 8 year, $67 million extension less than a week after being called up to the O's, as first reported by the Baltimore Sun's Andy Kostka. Jake and RDT are live to react to the first major extension of the Mike Elias era, how they feel about it going to the youngest member of a young core that now has some players in their mid-20's, what this means for Adley Rutschman's future, and much more. Thanks as always for listening, and we'll be back at you very soon.

With the promotion of key prospects Samuel Basallo and Dylan Beavers and the young group of high-ceiling position talent now completely in The Show, the last place Baltimore Orioles' showing on the field these next six weeks should prove to be more than just a bunch of meaningless baseball games. Luke Jones and Nestor use a Birdland history lesson to discuss what a success would even look like for Mike Elias and this era of stars who haven't really shined... The post Luke Jones and Nestor discuss Orioles promotion of Basallo and Beavers and Young near perfection in Houston first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

Fixing the Orioles rotation should be Mike Elias' top priority this offseason. Let's talk about the current state, the questions to answer, and some possible solutions. BlueSky Twitter YouTube

The franchise with the "under new ownership" sign on its last-place standing in the AL East, an evaporating fan base and a cowardly baseball operation that is now fielding minor league tryouts at Camden Yards with the remnants of a bunch of No. 1 draft picks, decided to raise ticket prices while continuing to lower the bar for tone deafness. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss their mutual disgust with every aspect of the Baltimore Orioles, on and off the field – from David Rubenstein and Catie Griggs down to Mike Elias and the sloppy play on the diamond. Stink. Stank. Stunk... The post Luke Jones and Nestor discuss their mutual disgust with every aspect Baltimore Orioles operation on and off the field first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

We're not sure how much is too much disgust in regard to the Baltimore Orioles. Here's an idea: fire Mike Elias and start over! Luke Jones and Nestor kinda disagree on this topic. If you love baseball, you should tell your friends about our intelligent, spirited and passionate debates. The post Luke Jones and Nestor discuss loss of Bautista and overall malaise of entire Orioles operation first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

It's difficult to find vocal fan support of the Orioles right now as they play out the rest of a terrible season. Now the attention turns to a crucial winter where Mike Elias will be under a ton of pressure. Is there any fan support of the GM at this point? Bob, Vinny and Nolan hear from someone who is still maintaining hope.

Some baseball fans are against spending big money on pitchers due to the rising number of injuries across the league. Nolan and Bob believe that acquiring pitching is a must, no matter the price.

It's last place baseball designed to showcase players for a chance to make the 2026 Baltimore Orioles roster. We all know this despite how awful it looks on the field. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Mike Elias "grand plan" en route to getting young players meaningful time against MLB competition to figure out what can be salvaged from a season of disaster for the franchise. The post Luke Jones and Nestor discuss Orioles last place summer realities as Bradish return looms first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

What kind of return did Mike Elias get for his deadline selloff? Keith Law joined the guys to share which prospects have the best shot to develop into something for the O's down the road.

Mike Elias hasta el momento tiene más pinta de fraude que de super ejecutivo, que fue la imagen que traía de Houston. Ya está bien de prospectos, de picks para el draft, porque al final mucho prospecto y terminamos jugando con peloteros desechados de ligas menores y eso no es serio. Ya se acabó la guachafita. La afición no va a soportar un año más de esta mamadera de gallo. Tome nota Rubenstein o es que ¿usted quiere seguir malbaratando esa boloña de real?

Ed and Rob took some time from Tuesday's BBMS to discuss the future of the O's young core? Mike Elias said it's time guys like Gunnar, Adley, and Westburg take leadership roles. Is the time now?

Dylan Beavers and Samuel Basallo remain in AAA for now and fan patience is starting to run thin. Nolan McGraw is tired of the service time manipulation and obsession with compensatory picks from Mike Elias.

Ed and Rob took some time from Monday's BBMS to talk Birds with Mike Bordick. Mike Elias told the fanbase on Friday that he's sorry for the way things turned out for the 2025 Orioles, but did he really owe anyone an apology?

Ed and Rob took some time from Monday's BBMS to hear Mike Elias' apology to the fanbase for the way the Orioles season fell apart. It's nice he's taking responsibility but did he really have to?

Ed and Rob took some time from Monday's BBMS to share their reactions to the not-so-great news about Grayson Rodriguez. Mike Elias said last Friday that surgery is very much on the table for G-Rod, so does that mean 2026 is out of the question as well?

Time for a Monday edition of the program, we will be talking plenty of Orioles after a busy baseball weekend, and continue to analyze where the birds stand post-trade deadline after they drop two of three to the Cubs in Wrigley Field over the weekend and dive into what needs to change before 2026. Plus, we'll recap everything the Ravens did over the weekend after they held their first stadium practice yesterday afternoon, including new Ravens kicker Tyler Loop nailing a 60-yard field goal! At 10:30am, our good friend Zach Moore from the Bat Around and @PigTownSports will check in with to give us his breakdown of the Orioles minor league return on the trade market and dive into what he believes should be priorities for Mike Elias getting the O's back to contention in 2026. At 11am, we'll be joined by Brian Wacker of the Baltimore Sun, who covers the Ravens and was at yesterday's stadium practice and get an update on where the team stands right now, Tyler Loop's strong kicking leg, and much more.

Plus, it's a Monday, so Glenn and Griffin will recap the week that was in Orioles baseball during ‘Three Up and Three Down…'

MLB insider and analyst for CBS Sports Jim Bowden joined the show to discuss the Orioles handling of the trade deadline. He touches on his grade for the Orioles at the deadline, expectations for 2026, and much more.

Mike Elias says he hopes Dylan Beavers and Samuel Basallo get some play time in the closing months of the 2025 season. Some fans would like to see that initiative start today. What's the holdup? Cordell and Bruce discuss.

No one wanted the trade deadline to go this way, but given where the Orioles are in their season, it made sense. Now it's on Mike Elias to build from here and make a winner in 2026. Tyler discusses all of it in this episode. BlueSky Twitter YouTube

Dicen que Mike Elias es un gran scout, que sabe escoger muy buenos prospectos, pero luego no sabe qué hacer con ellos. Y en parte se ha visto eso este año. Teníamos los prospectos. De hecho, después de la desbandada que tuvimos en esta temporada de cambios, aún nuestro Line up estaba lleno de esas caras que se suponen que son nuestra base, nuestro cimiento con miras a los años que vienen. De hecho teníamos prácticamente 8 fijos y solo nos sorprendió la aparición en el Line up del novato Jeremiah Jackson como designado y que ademas dio su primer hit el viernes ante los Cachorros en la derrota 1-0 que demostró que Trevor Rogers sí que puede ser el que nos vendió Elias cuando hizo el cambio por Stowers y Norby por este zurdo que está demostrando que sí tiene calidad. De hecho es el primer juego completo que lanzan los Orioles en 2025.

No one should be shocked by the deadline deals of Mike Elias but fans of the Baltimore Orioles are certainly within reason wondering what the grand plan looks like to compete in 2026. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the large sell off of nine MLB players at trade deadline in exchange for 16 prospects. It's going to be a long, last-place offseason in Birdland to rebuild the pitching. The post Luke Jones and Nestor discuss Orioles and Mike Elias selloff of nine MLB players at trade deadline first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

Rob and Jeremy took some time from Friday's BBMS to give their grade for GM Mike Elias' work at the trade deadline. Is he still under the gun for the 2026 season? Did he do enough to save his job?

Welcome into a Friday edition of Glenn Clark Radio, plenty to discuss on the program as we breakdown everything from MLB's trade deadline, what it means for the Orioles, the rest of 2025, 2026 and much more.

Como en el principio de Peter, creemos que Mike Elias ha alcanzado su nivel de incompetencia y por esa razón es necesario que se vaya, a sacar del hoyo a otro equipo y cuando lo tenga más o menos reflotado, que se vaya a buscar otro y así como en el ciclo de la vida. Necesitamos en su momento a un tipo como Mike Elias y estuvimos con él, le acompañamos en la travesía por el desierto. Pero ahora necesitamos a un Dombrowski que sepa administrar un equipo con presupuesto grande, que invierta en la agencia libre, que quiera armar un equipo para ganar la serie mundial, porque recordemos que Rubenstein no tiene mucho tiempo para esperar a ganar una serie mundial.
