The Baltimore Orioles are one of baseball’s biggest surprises this season; they currently have the best record in the American League at 28-17 and lead the AL East by a game over the Tampa Bay Rays.

First-place teams often look around for whatever assistance they might be able to find that could help get them to the postseason. The Orioles aren’t used to this, as they haven’t been to said postseason in 15 years, but they seem to have the hang of looking around:

Roy Oswalt! Who’s been connected with the other teams in Heyman’s tweet multiple times, as well as the Cardinals. At one point Oswalt said he only wanted to pitch for teams near his offseason home in Mississippi, but now that it’s almost June, maybe that isn’t important. Baltimore’s about 1,000 miles from Mississippi. That isn’t close. But maybe Oswalt wants to pitch a lot, after sitting around in Mississippi until now.

And he could help the Orioles. Maybe there will, at last, be a match.
