Orioles Rumors: Corner Infielders, Hendrickson

MLB.com's Alden Gonzalez has a bunch of Orioles rumors for us, but unfortunately they're spread out among a half-dozen tweets or so. Here's the goods...

• Andy MacPhail said that they've "made no secret about the fact that we're looking for corner infielders."
• ESPN's Keith Law notes the team has some prospects coming up at first and third base, but MacPhail acknowledged that they probably aren't ready to contribute yet. Gonzalez mentions the team's two most notable prospects, Josh Bell and Brandon Snyder, will likely get some more seasoning in the minors.
• MacPhail also said the team plans to accumulate whatever pitching they can.
• Regarding free agent lefty Mark Hendrickson, "We've talked with his [rep], & I think we both have a pretty good understanding of where we are ..."
• When it comes to trading prospects, MacPhail said "I think we'll be judicious about giving up any of those guys we think are a part of our core future... I would think it unlikely ... we gave up a young key part of our future and just got something back that would be a short-term answer."
