Orioles flirt with Cal Ripken free agent deal
The Orioles seek to remove contract talk distractions by signing Cal Ripken to a roughly 30 million five year deal before their pennant drive. Ripken, turning 32, indicated he would discuss it tomorrow after arriving late to Camden Yards. The potential pact would likely make him the game's highest paid player and keep him in Baltimore. Meanwhile Detroit Tigers sale to Mike Ilitch advances with an 85 million deal awaiting league approval.
