2009 Baltimore Orioles MLB Preview:
The 2009 Baltimore Orioles are team that looks like they are on the rise. The Orioles roster has transitioned into a pairing of young potential in the outfield and solid contributors in the infield. The O's infield will be led by Aubrey Huff and Melvin Mora. If those two can match their combined 50+ home runs from 2008, then Camden Yards will be rocking. On the mound Baltimore will turn to Rich Hill and Mark Hendrickson to help keep their opponents in-check. If the hitting is good and the pitching improves, then Baltimore Orioles fans may have a special 2009 season.
