It's so clear now. The deal that brought Hall of Famer Frank Robinson to Baltimore — exactly 50 years ago — is the best trade in Orioles history for so many reasons that there really is no room for debate on the subject. On Dec. 9, 1965, the Orioles sent starting pitcher Milt Pappas, reliever Jack Baldschun and outfielder Dick Simpson to the Cincinnati Reds for a former National League Rookie of the Year and MVP who would immediately lead the club to its first World Series title.

All three of the Orioles' All-Star starters were acquired in trades, by former president of baseball operations Andy MacPhail.

Steve Johnson will go into spring training with the opportunity to stick in the Orioles' starting rotation. Manager Buck Showalter said Johnson will compete for a rotation spot this spring — a competition that will be crowded.

When Adam Jones launched his 30th home run to deliver the crowning blow in the Orioles' three-game sweep of the Seattle Mariners at Safeco Field, it was hard not to think of former O's pitcher Erik Bedard.

Steve Johnson (3-0) won again for the Orioles on Tuesday night, entering the game in the fourth with little warning after Jason Hammel had to leave due to a knee injury.

Exactly 23 years to the day that Dave Johnson notched his first big league victory at Memorial Stadium for his hometown Orioles, his 24-year-old son Steve got his first major league victory.

This year, his first as the Orioles' full-time closer, Jim Johnson leads the major leagues in saves with 26 at the All-Star break. Right-handed hitters are batting .113 against him, the second-lowest average against among AL relievers.

Helped by family and friends, Orioles outfielder Adam Jones escaped a violent and drug-infested neighborhood in San Diego to become an All-Star and the face of his franchise. He says he'll never forget where he came from.

Orioles executive vice president Dan Duquette said the team will consider all avenues to make a push for the playoffs this season.

The Orioles have acquired left-handed minor-league reliever Mike Belfiore from the Diamondbacks as the player to be named later in the Josh Bell trade, the club announced Saturday.

The Orioles have claimed catcher Luis Exposito off waivers from the Red Sox, the team announced Tuesday afternoon. To make room for Exposito on the club's 40-man roster, the Orioles have designated third baseman Josh Bell for assignment.
