Most of the Orioles were named by former Mets clubhouse employee Kirk Radomski. The biggies, obviously are Roberts, Tejada (no surprise there, Mr. B12), Guillen, Logan, and Gibbons. Personally heartbreaking for this hardball fan is to see Bigbie’s name, who grew up in the same Indiana town as he did. (He did cooperate with investigators, so kudos for that, Larry.)
