Orioles reliever Danys Baez informed club officials yesterday that he has decided to have ligament-transplant surgery to repair the partially torn ligament in his right elbow. Baez, who started the season as the Orioles' top setup man but struggled mightily after a solid April, still hasn't set a date or chosen a doctor for the surgery, but it will force him to miss next season, joining closer Chris Ray on the sideline. Ray had the same procedure, often called Tommy John surgery, last month and is expected to miss most if not all of next season.

And somewhere in Baltimore an O's fan cried. Not over the loss of Baez, but that he was on their team.

Already it is going to be a long season for me in 2008. When will the Baltimore Orioles matter in baseball again?
