Ex-Detroit Tiger Dontrelle Willis Returns To Baseball
The story of Dontrelle Willis’ fall from stardom is one of the strangest and saddest you’ll see in the game. By the age of 23, Dontrelle had racked up two All-Star appearances, a Rookie of the Year award, and was named the runner-up for a Cy Young award. He would have one more successful season before completely and utterly imploding.
Of course we all know how Willis came to...

Orioles Acquire Mike Belfiore From D'Backs For Josh Bell
The Orioles traded third-baseman Josh Bell over to Arizona last month, and the Diamondbacks now have sent over left-handed pitcher Mike Belfiore to complete that deal. Bell was mostly a disappointment in Baltimore after coming over from the Dodgers in the George Sherrill trade. His plate discipline went south, as he hit just .200/.221/.264 when he got a chance in the Majors and posted...

Daily Notes - The Orioles Dropped Bombs Edition
OK, so the Orioles hitting three homers in a row to open a game may not be extremely fantasy relevant, but it's neat and hasn't been done before. All said and done, they hit five homers as a team in the first game of the double header. Sure teams have hit more, and Strasburg's 13 K's in 6 innings is more impressive, but I couldn't resist the urge to make a bird...
Rays take on upstart O's for division lead
Year after year, its been the same old story for the Baltimore Orioles: Hope springing eternal during camp in Sarasota, followed by a plop to the bottom of the AL East standings when the real games begin.
The arrival of no-nonsense, veteran skipper Buck Showalter at the end of the 2010 campaign provided a tease with a sensational late-season finish. But after a promising start in...

Vladimir Guerrero has agreed to a minor league contract with the Toronto Blue Jays.
The deal was announced Thursday by the Blue Jays before a four-game series at Minnesota. General manager Alex Anthopoulos cautioned there's no guarantee the 37-year-old will join the big league team. Toronto will send him to extended spring training in Dunedin, Fla., and assess his condition...
True Believer
That’s it. I can’t deny it anymore.
The Orioles are real; to deny it at this point is to deny math, logic and reality.
The Birds did get beaten up by the Rangers a bit, but who hasn’t. The Orioles still have the second-best record in the American League, lead the league in homers, are getting solid starting pitching and shut down bullpen work.
This is not a fluke. Repeat...
