Oriole Conversations Get Me Excited
Talking about the Orioles with a friend of mine working for - uh - that Baltimore clothing company.
bretbliam: "Prior says his cautious start this spring is because he suffered a two-week respiratory illness in late December that sent him to the emergency room. "
bretbliam: teams are going to waste money on mark prior for over a decade
