Baltimore Orioles: Interest in Chris Carter is “exaggerated”

The Baltimore Orioles are reportedly interested in free agent first baseman Chris Carter. However just because the Orioles are showing interest, doesn’t mean that they are desperate enough to sign him.

According to Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com, the interest in Chris Carter is more or less “exaggerated”, although signing him or former Oriole Pedro Alvarez is still not out of the question.

The team is still interested in signing free agent Mark Trumbo despite pulling a four-year offer from the table last week. The Orioles revealed they will only turn to Carter or Pedro Alvarez if Trumbo decides to sign elsewhere.
