Multiple reports have said the Orioles are interested in Padres outfielder Melvin Upton - and an Upton for Ubaldo Jimenez trade has even been discussed.
It’s the day of Orioles-Padres related rumors. Going along with an earlier rumor that the Orioles were scouting Padres starter Andrew Cashner on Thursday, there’s also this from ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick: The O’s have talked to the Padres about outfielder Melvin Upton.
Oh, but it’s even better than that! Ken Rosenthal adds that the Orioles are discussing with the Padres a swap that would send Ubaldo Jimenez to San Diego.
