O's call up Mickolio


Rumor has it that the Orioles called up Kam Mickolio from Norfolk. The corresponding roster move has yet to be announced.He will be apart of trying to fill the viod left by George Sherrils injury. Thoough with Chris Ray returnings in a few weeks and gEorge Sherril being healthy the bullpen looks pretty good for next season.

Mickolio, who has been compared to a shorter John Rauch, had a 1.50 ERA spawning 18 innings and 15 appearances with 11 holds.
