Quick Hits: O's Stuffage

Spring training is underway in sunny Florida, and the big news yesterday was that Erik Bedard avoided arbitration with the team. He seemed fairly relieved that a deal got done, and Baltimore Sun writer Jeff Zerbiec has more details on the situation. Meanwhile, erstwhile Sun reporter & blogger Roch Kubatko updates us on Jay Gibbons and tidbits from camp.

As well, Aubrey Huff is happy to be in camp with the Orioles, and the Sun has a Q&A with new reliever, Chad Bradford.

The Washington Post’s Jorge Arangure reports on the Bedard deal, and as well reports that the Orioles are now looking to lock up Brian Roberts to a long term deal.

Mike Boehm of Orioles' Magic reports that Rick Dempsey will no longer be on the O's Bench, but working for MASN.

Ben of Oriole Central has his thoughts on the upcoming season.
