Will Brian Roberts Ever Return?

A lingering topic at FanFest -- and for much of the off-season -- involved second baseman Brian Roberts. As we all know, he’s missed much of the past two seasons dealing with post-concussion syndrome issues and other injuries. At this point, one has to ask – will Brian Roberts ever suit up for the Baltimore Orioles again? Considering that he missed FanFest and not been heard...

Orioles Brian Roberts’ status still up in the air

Brian Roberts may be the longest tenured member of the Baltimore Orioles but the status of the oft-injured second baseman is still unclear.

Roberts went on to play in 59 games that season with a .745 OPS and 12 stolen bases. The start of the 2011 season...

Baltimore Orioles: Decline of home-field advantage

First off some housekeeping; the Baltimore Orioles signed former first round draft pick Matt Antonelli last week. Antonelli came up within the San Diego Padres organization, and was in essence considered a bust when he only hit .215. However the Orioles must have liked what they saw in 2011 when Antonelli hit .297 with Washington’s triple-A club. Antonelli is primarily an infielder...

Random Thoughts About the Oriole Winning Streak

Yeah, for the Orioles, four games IS a streak. Here are some random thoughts that don't deserve full posts of their own...*****With all the veteran power bats the Orioles signed over the winter, it has been the 5'9" Brian Roberts who has been fueling the offense during Baltimore's 4-0 start.Being a leadoff hitter, Roberts doesn't hit a ton of multi-run homers. He has two 3-run homers...

With Brian Roberts in Limbo, A Way to Cushion the Blow

The New 2011 Brian Roberts Injury Timeline

Frustrating, isn't it?I present the 2011 version of the Brian Roberts injury timeline.

That's why this 2011 pattern seems all too familiar.This is just a tracker that I will continue to update...and freak out about, until the end of the...

The Crystal Ball 2011: Brian Roberts

Don't you know that he is a shooting star?We should enjoy Brian Roberts while we have him.He is the greatest Oriole second baseman ever. He leads all Baltimore second basemen in games played, homers, triples, doubles, hits, stolen bases, runs scored, RBI, batting average and slugging. Sure, you could make the argument for Davey Johnson or Bobby Grich but those guys got traded...

Roberts May Have Concussed Himself

I'm not sure if there's still time left to vote for dumbest baseball injury of the year, but if so, the Orioies Brian Roberts autoconcussing himself would make a fine choice.
