Do you remember Tomo Ohka? He pitched in parts of 10 big-league seasons for the Boston Red Sox, Montreal Expos, and various others. He was once traded for Ugueth Urbina, then a few years later for Junior Spivey. You remember him, right? Of course you do.
That's good, because it turns out Ohka is still chasing his big-league dreams, even as he nears his 41st birthday. To wit, on Thursday he signed a minor-league deal with the Baltimore Orioles:
Ohka hasn't thrown in the majors since 2009, and his most recent stint in organized ball happened back in 2014 -- when he walked more than he struck out and allowed nearly six runs per nine innings for the Bridgeport Bluefish.
