Roberts Released by the Orioles After Request
Robin Roberts, 38, a Hall of Fame pitcher with 276 major league wins, was placed on waivers by the Baltimore Orioles at his request. He had a 5-7 season and had started only one of the last five weeks, saying he hoped to continue pitching in a starting role. Orioles GM Lee MacPhail said another club may claim him for $1 and he believes Roberts can still help as a starter, but there was no room for him in Baltimore.
