Tuesday Bird Droppings: The Orioles head west to find fame and fortune

After an off day, the Orioles west coast swing begins. Today in the news, Adam Jones' shoes, All-Star snubs waiting to happen, people who are hitting well in June, and a strange theory about Jake Arrieta's beard.

Hello, friends.

There's something especially painful about west coast road trips. No, it's not entirely because of the Orioles spending so much time in an inferior time zone, although that's related to the problem. Waiting an extra three hours for the game to start kind of sucks. At least they had an off day out in San Diego, so hopefully there won't be any travel shenanigans dragging them down.
