Fort Lauderdale, Fla. -- Brian Roberts leaned forward at his locker yesterday and dug a spoon into his yogurt parfait, a healthy breakfast alternative that matches the healthy attitude he brings into the clubhouse each morning. He laughed at a failed prank by one of his teammates, and hardly bore the look of a man who's stressed about his financial future.
Another day passed without Roberts signing a contract extension. He marked the occasion by collecting singles in his only two trips to the plate and stealing a base in the Orioles' 4-0 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.
