Orioles finalizing trade with Diamondbacks for Michael Bourn, reports say
Michael Bourn (Getty Images) After acquiring Drew Stubbs on Wednesday, the Orioles made another move to strengthen their outfield by agreeing to a trade for veteran speedster Michael Bourn.
According to multiple reports, Baltimore is finalizing a deal that would bring the 33-year-old outfielder to Baltimore ahead of the deadline for players to be eligible for the playoffs. It is not known what or whom Arizona would acquire.
A two-time All-Star and two-time Gold Glove winner, the left-handed-hitting Bourn is batting .261/.307/.362 with three homers, 30 RBIs and 13 steals in 358 plate appearances this season.
