Baltimore Orioles Baseball
What do the O’s do with Scott, Berken, and Guthrie?
If the Baltimore Orioles can find homes for Ty Wigginton, Will Ohman, Miguel Tejada, and Kevin Millwood prior to the July 31st Non-Waiver deadline, it is probable the O's will look to make those trades.None of those players are signed for the 2011 season, so moving...
Happy to see Gonzalez return

The return of Roberts
Brian Roberts was 3 for 5 tonight, with a double in his second rehab start with the Bowie Baysox. Combined with his 2 for 5 last-night, and Roberts appears just about ready to return to the Majors. In a year where the O's are 30+ games under .500 it is easy to dismiss...
