After last offseason when the Pirates pilfered two pitching prospects for the Orioles in exchange for the disappointing Travis Snider, just about the last thing you want to see is any news that the O's are talking another trade with that team.

Before anything else, remember always the first rule of baseball rumors: Probably nothing will happen.
