Dave from Salisbury for post game coverage.  

The FCC would be rolling in dough from all the fines...

Steve Melewsky does play by play for multiple sports for Towson state. Sounds like he may get to call some games.

Ditto. And maybe have some color commentary from Bob From Parkville and Elkton John.

Dave from Salisbury could work MASN only, not subject to FCC fines on cable.  And it would the first postgame show rated TV-MA.

Hunter usually replaces Thorn FOR TV PBP on his days off so they need someone to do that with Hunter doing radio PBP. They have Palmer, BRob, Ben McDonald, and Bordick for color.

We'd get to hear everything we ever wanted to know about Gene Woodling

I wonder what the Radio ratings are.  The Orioles only had 27k viewers per game in prime time for TV.   Orioles radio had a market share of something around 5 percent.  But it seems like Nielsen doesn't publishes how many people that is.  But I am guessing it isn't a significant number.

At a certain point you have to wonder if broadcasting Oriole games on the radio makes financial sense.

I live in Salisbury and would love to meet him.

I certainly listened to more radio games than I did watch televised games last year. This is mostly because I have to set up a VPN and all manner of hijinks in order to watch an Orioles game because MASN is a trash fire that won't allow in-market streaming. 

I am certainly not going to pay Comcast or Verizon for a channel package just to watch an Orioles game. I am going to find a way to stream that game online for free. I imagine there's a few thousand O's fans who do the same. Radio, though, I can pay $20 and listen to it all spring and summer on my phone, and I'm happy to do that.

DM me, let's put our heads together.  I gotta figure out a way to watch games this year, too.

I really miss Joe Angel, we were spoiled at least from a broadcasting standpoint for a very long time. Him and Manfra worked well together. O's could be losing 8-0 and I would still listen to Angel.

Hunter is solid on the radio, much better than tv. Kevin Brown is okay, nothing against him. Like I said, we were spoiled.

We've been very spoiled. Thorne, Palmer / Angel, Manfra - fantastic duos on TV and radio.
