There may be expanded rosters, but the Orioles have a dwindling supply of outfielders. Baltimore lost Adam Jones for the season due to an ankle sprain and lost Felix Pie to a temporary back injury on Friday night, giving the team three healthy outfielders.
Manager Dave Trembley said he has broached the topic with Andy MacPhail, the team's president of baseball operations, and that help may be on the way. In that case, Lou Montanez, who's missed most of the year with a thumb injury, would be the best option.
"I did talk to Andy about that. We probably will discuss that," said Trembley of his roster's weak spot. "The possibility does exist that we could add an outfielder."
