Orioles Pitcher Brad Brach On The Orioles Line-Up And Impressive Performers This Spring

Brad Brach is a relief pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles.

Brad joined Ed and Steve to talk about spring training and the upcoming regular season.

Brad started off by talking about the team's spring training struggles and if it is a topic in the clubhouse saying, "guys are kind of joking about it but no one is really taking it to seriously...yesterday we hit the ball real hard but it was right at somebody." As for whether or not any players have impressed him so far this spring Brad said,"Mark Trumbo his batting practice is really impressive the ball comes off his bat very well...expect a lot of home-runs at Camden this year he has some serious serious pop."

On the topic of facing the Orioles line-up and what it would be like to face them Brad said, "the pitchers in our bullpen we'll sit down and talk about our line-up and we talk about if you put a guy on you're setting yourself up for a big inning...if you make a mistake against us you're going to pay." Brad was asked about getting Matt Wieters back and what that means to the team saying, "it's great having Matt back, I can't imagine many catchers in the game that have more knowledge of hitters around this league."

Brad also talked about possible rule changes to speed up the game, and his Monmouth team trying to make the NCAA Tournament.
