Guess who's back


The Orioles announced today that they activated Adam Jones of the 15-day disabled list. The 23 year old outfielder was hitting .279 with 7 home runs, 50 RBI, and a .320 on base percentage.

As rosters expand from 25 to 40 we will finally be able to see many of the players at triple-A Norfolk that have some promise, but we will probably not see anyone from Double-A Bowie or only a few players with the Orioles not wanting to rush them along. With the rotation and bullpen the way it is though they need somebody that can throw strikes and can get guys out. The rotation is in shambles with us only having one good starter and he showed signs in his last start of fatigue and starting to feel the pressure of being the only reliable starter.

GEorge Sherrill hopefully will rejoin the team soon, but Chris Ray will not be with the team this season.
