Odds & Ends: O’s, Rolen, Borbon

By | August 22, 2009 at 5:21pm CDT

A few more links for your Saturday afternoon viewing pleasure…

  • Peter Schmuck of the Baltimore Sun expects the Orioles to call up infielder Justin Turner, outfielder Joey Gathright and catcher Robby Hammock when rosters expand on September 1.  The O's might also want to add some bullpen depth.
  • John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer takes a look back, and a look forward, at the Reds' trade for Scott Rolen.  "There's no question Rolen is a big upgrade over Edwin Encarnacion," Fay writes. "But the Reds gave up young pitching in the deal, and Rolen's salary really hamstrings the club as far as payroll flexibility." 
  • Marc Hulet of Fangraphs reviews the career of "under-hyped" outfielder Julio Borbon, who has been on fire since his promotion to the Rangers on August 7.  Can he maintain the pace?
