The subject figured to come up during the course of this home-and-home exhibition series between the Orioles and Atlanta Braves that continues today at Ed Smith Stadium.
The Orioles are looking for a right fielder and fan favorite Nick Markakis probably would be available if the O’s wanted to give up a prospect and assume the rest of his contract.
So, if you’re a big Nick fan – and there were some Markakis jerseys in the stands at Champion Stadium on Tuesday – you probably want to know whether that’s a real possibility or a pipe dream.
