Fisher Moved To Baltimore
The Orioles traded for reliever Eddie Fisher and sent Jerry Adair to Chicago, with John Riddle going to Chicago's farm system. Adair, once bitter over a change at second, expressed relief and optimism about a fresh start. The White Sox seek infield stability while Baltimore aims a fluid pitching staff with arms able to start or relieve. Adair previously set fielding records and batted .259 with 66 RBIs last season.
