The Orioles - like some other teams - do their best to avoid Scott Boras, baseball's most formidable agent, even though the scars from the contentious Ben McDonald negotiations in 1989 have faded. At No. 5, the Orioles might have their pick of the Boras litter if others pass on his clients because of signability fears. The Orioles most covet Georgia Tech catcher Matt Wieters, a 6-foot-5, 230-pound switch-hitter with perhaps the best bat in the draft. His defense and rocket arm are already ready for the major leagues, one scout said.
