And away we go, episode 508 of the Algaldi podcast, it is Wednesday, February 15, 2023.

It is the day of the first workout for pitchers and catchers at National Spring Training in West Palm Beach, Florida, as manager Davey Martinez and his players, his boys are back.

I'm proud of your boys.

Yes, Davey, proud of the boys. Well, I'm not sure how often Davey will be proud of the boys this coming season.

We are probably in for another long season for Davey and the boys, but good to have not spring training getting going.

This also is the day on which pitchers and catchers are reporting to Orioles Spring Training in Sarasota, Florida.

Yes, spring training season has arrived, even though it technically still is winter, spring training in the winter.

Majorly baseball is funny. It has the winter meetings, which in taking place in early slash mid-December actually happen in the fall.

And MLB has spring training season, the bulk of which actually technically happens in the winter.

Hello and welcome to this Wednesday installment of the Algaldi podcast. Well, I don't know what will happen first.

It's a great X's and O's breakdown of Greg Roman next segment with Ravens film analyst Ken McCusik. Also on the show a busy night on Tuesday night games for the capitals wizards and Georgetown basketball.

I do have an upbeat wizard segment for you. Yes, I said upbeat and wizards in the same sentence a very nice win for our wizards late night on Tuesday night. Well, you were doing who knows what late night on Valentine's day night. Don't tell me. I don't need to know.

The wizards were registering a blowout win at the Portland trailblazers 126 101 was the final Kyle Kusma return from his four game absence caused by a spread left ankle and he was tremendous.
