BALTIMORE -- When the Orioles traded away six key players in July, there was an expectation that the club's roster purge would continue into August. But that hasn't been the case.
There's issues for several potential candidates from the O's. Mark Trumbo is currently on the disabled list, Adam Jones could invoke his 10-and-5 rights -- as he did at the non-waiver Trade Deadline -- and Andrew Cashner and Alex Cobb -- who have both reportedly cleared waivers -- haven't generated much interest. The Orioles were unable to trade Danny Valencia earlier this month and ended up releasing him.
