Hendrickson close?

Don't have any hard information, but I've got to think the Mark Hendrickson situation gets resolved pretty quick -- perhaps by the weekend. The fact that right-hander Dennis Sarfate was designated for assignment to make room on the roster for Miguel Tejada seemed like a hint that the Orioles are getting ready to add at least one left-hander to the bullpen. ...

The Rays and Mariners are interested in lefty reliever Mark Hendrickson, tweets Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports.  Hendrickson's former team, the Orioles, is also keeping tabs on him.  The O's declined a $1.2MM option on him last month.

Players A to Z, Mark Hendrickson

Mark Hendrickson pitched in relief for the Baltimore Orioles in 2010 and now seeks work as a free agent. At 6′ 9″, he was the third tallest pitcher in the majors in 2010, but Mark could not use his height to intimidate batters. His 5.1 strikeouts per nine is low, especially when you consider that this height allows him to release the ball closer to the plate, which means hitters...

So, I wake up at the crack of noon and find out that the Mark Hendrickson story is already out there.

Orioles: What a relief...Hendrickson signs

The Orioles obviously didn't want another big snowstorm to delay the signing of reliever Mark Hendrickson, so they got it done a little while ago and designated right-hander Armando Gabino for assignment.

Hendrickson and Fiorentino Sign Minor-league Deals

In other news….. I hate to even write about this because we knew it was coming. There was no reason to think that Mark Hendrickson would not sign with the O’s. He wanted to be an Oriole, and he is cheap. A perfect combination. What I like about this deal, is that it is a minor league deal. Big Mark doesn’t have to make the team in order for the Birds to keep him. As for Fiorentino...
