The Orioles are still pursuing trades involving several of their best players, but they'll soon turn their attention toward free agency if acceptable offers don't come this month. Orioles' President Andy MacPhail confirmed that he is still in trade talks with various clubs but that the intensity has not picked up significantly in the past few weeks. "There's no change in status," MacPhail said. "I talk to different clubs about different things, but I wouldn't characterize anything as 'heating up' these days." Throughout the offseason, the Orioles have made it known that most of their players are available for the right deal, including ace left-hander Erik Bedard and All-Star second baseman Brian Roberts.
