One-year contract reportedly pending physical examination
The Orioles and free-agent first baseman Derrek Lee have reached a verbal
agreement on a one-year contract, according to Major League sources.
The deal, which has yet to be finalized, is pending a physical examination.
The team has not confirmed the move.
The Orioles were pursuing free-agent Adam LaRoche, but they elected to sign
Lee instead after talks broke down reportedly over contract length. Lee, 35,
hit .260 with 19 home runs and 80 RBIs in 148 games last season, split
between Chicago and Atlanta. For his career, Lee has a .282 average with 312
home runs.

Lee拒絕了教士一年8.5 million
和O’s的新約在8 million上下
整個O’s的內野和2010已大不相同了
