In the eyes of an elementary school kid, a baseball player who stands only 5-foot-9 appears larger than life in uniform. Yet, several days after Naomi Bridger watched Orioles star second baseman Brian Roberts in action against the Washington Nationals, she saw one of the Orioles' top players in a different light.

George Sherrill has made the American League All-Star team as the only Oriole on the squad. Congrats, George, that's wonderful, we love ya. But Brian Roberts needs your help, everyone!

So Brian Roberts finally makes it to Wrigley. To say it's been an up and down week for the Cubs -- and their fans -- is probably an understatement. After starting the week off well with a three-game sweep against the White Sox, Chicago got a reminder that injuries effect everybody; dropping two of three to the Orioles, and then getting swept themselves at US Cellular by the Sox. Yet by beating San...

Roger Bernadina closes his glove on a pop fly from Alex Cintron. Nick Markakis knocks an 0-2, two-out single to right. A low fastball entices Aubrey Huff to pop out foul of third, where Kory Casto catches it...Wait...

The acquisition of Roberts would allow the...

Yesterday we picked Baltimore’s token All-Star representative; its Meathook All-Star if you will. My choice was Brian Roberts, and reader votes are tied up between B-Rob and George Sherrill. By All-Star standards, neither will light anyone’s fire, but neither is a pockmark on the game either. Today, however, we look at Washington’s token rep, and, whoa [...]
