Newsbreakers
September 20, 2009
Oscar Salazar went 3-for-4 with an RBI double on Sunday, as San Diego blanked the Pirates 4-0 on the road.
Our View:
Salazar is now batting .327 in 62 games this season. Still, at age 31, he won't figure prominently in the Padres' 2010 plans, if at all.
September 1, 2009
Oscar Salazar exited Monday's battle with the Nationals while making a amazing over-the-shoulder grab in the seventh inning, according to the Associated Press.
Our View:
Salazar crashed into the pitcher's scoreboard while catching a flyball on the warning track at Petco Park. He then bounced off the scoreboard, limped a few steps, threw the ball in, then fell to the ground and clutched his left knee. He was able to walk off the field without assistance, but the severity of his injury is yet to be determined.
July 19, 2009
Oscar Salazar has been traded to the San Diego Padres in exchange for relief pitcher Cla Meredith, according to ESPN. Salazar is hitting .419 in 31 at-bats with the O's this season.
Our View:
Salazar proved in limited time this season that he is capable of hitting at this level, and he could very well get more of a chance in San Diego. Depending on the playing time he gets, he could begin to register on fantasy radars for the second half.
July 12, 2009
Oscar Salazar made some noise as the DH in Baltimore's 4-2 win over the Blue Jays on Sunday. He blasted his second homer of the season in a 2-for-3 effort.
Our View:
In limited duty this season, Salazar is hitting .419 with a pair of homers and six RBI. He doesn't play enough to get legit fantasy consideration, but if he continues hit like this he'll start popping up on league radars everywhere.
June 7, 2009
Oscar Salazar has been recalled by the Orioles from Triple-A Norfolk, according to TSN.
Our View:
He will provide depth with Cesar Izturis on the DL, but Salazar does not figure to see much action as Robert Andino is expected to handle the bulk of the workload at shortstop.
January 22, 2009
Oscar Salazar has been designated for assignment by the Orioles, according to the Associated Press. He was moved to make room for newly acquired catcher Gregg Zaun on the roster.
Our View:
Salazar displayed some power with five homers over 81 at-bats in 2008, but the 30-year-old is really just organizational depth at this point of his career.
