MLB Trade Rumors: Baltimore Orioles 2B

With 2B Brian Roberts epidural, the Orioles are in the trade market. Fortunately, fill-in 2B seem plentiful.

From the Baltimore Sun:

"The Chicago Cubs, one of the Orioles' favorite trade partners, are seeking right-handed relief help and could move either former Orioles farmhand Mike Fontenot or Jeff Baker. With Matt Albers, Cla Meredith and Dennis Sarfate likely battling for one bullpen spot this spring, the Orioles have extra right-handed relievers.

The Pittsburgh Pirates could make Ramon Vazquez and/or Delwyn Young available, while the Washington Nationals' stock of middle infielders includes Alberto Gonzalez and Eric Bruntlett.

Other second basemen who could be available include the Tampa Bay Rays' Elliot Johnson, the Minnesota Twins' Alexi Casilla, the Chicago White Sox's Jayson Nix, the Kansas City Royals' Alberto Callaspo, the Cleveland Indians' Mark Grudzielanek, the Cincinnati Reds' Chris Burke and the Arizona Diamondbacks' Augie Ojeda."
