Peters sees no strike ahead for Orioles in 1970s season
Orioles general manager Hank Peters said in Hagerstown there is likely no strike this year and few roster changes on opening day. He noted ongoing basic agreement talks with players and owners, and discussed compensation disputes around the free agent draft, insisting a broad spending spree could threaten baseball's competitiveness. He projected Tim Stoddard as bullpen successor and highlighted young infielders Wayne Krenchicki Floyd Rayford and Loma Sakata plus current season ticket sales and optimistic attendance goals.
